hi all, i think there should be reservation for blinds in parliament and state legislatures atleast 1% in lok sabha if 1% seats are reserved then it will account for 5 seats out of 545 seats. already in lok sabha many seats are reserved for SC and ST canditates. also 2 seats are reserved for anglo indians. anglo indian is now outdated issue. in Rajya sabha 12 members are nominated by President for persons having special knowledge of science, arts, literature and social service. why president should not nominate blinds or other handicapped persons in rajya sabha?
in state legislatures also there should be reservation for blinds and other handicapped. in vidhan sabha 1% seats should be reserved for blinds. Governor nominates 1 person of anglo indian community to vidhan sabha if not represented adequetly. anglo indian concept is now outdated , this was relevent when india became independent. in vidhan parishad, governer appoints few members having knowledge of science, rts, literature, social service andco-operative movement. here also reservation for blinds and other disabled pepole should be made. i will note here 2 fundamental rights mentioned in our constitution which are enforceable by courts of law. article 14 states equality before law. it means nobody is above law of land. article 15 prohibits government discriminating citizens against caste, creed, religion, language, sex, place of birth. these fundamental rights does not prohibit government from making laws SC and ST ,children, womenand other socially and educationally backward sections of society , according to constition. so government can reserve seats for blinds in parliament and state legislatures. but government is not doing anything regarding this matter. should we try to make any pressure group? can we file PIL in supreme court as violation of our fundamental right what should we do? what do you think? any comment from legal experts is welcome. kaustubh khare mobile- 9423391691 To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
