1. First of all, we will have a very cclear statistics and specifics on disability population in this country. We will no how many, and even who, require what kinds of services and it would then be possible for NGOs and service organisations to reach out to that specific population.
2. We will know geographical disposition of disability and will be able to check if certain disability are occurring in certain families/social environments, especially vision defects such as RP etc. 3. This will be good for people to access services of the government and even the government can ensure the benefits reach the person/people it is meant for. 4. It would hopefully unify the various identification certificates we need to carry with us now. 5. This is a long shot, but it should be possible for the prospective employers to learn about our disability when they check our UID numbers even before the recruitment process begins. The employer can then make up his mind about the suitability of the position for us, instead of waiting for us to let him know the disability (which some people are apprehensive of doing since they fear that they may not be called for the interview in the first place if their disability is known). That's all I can think of.
