Sir,
Impairment in any form- physical, visual or hearing is a great handicap to the affected person who has to struggle a lot to lead a normal life.The greater is the impairment, the less are the chances of success of the impaired person.For example, a person suffering from 40 percent impairment has certainly more chances to get success in comparison to a person who has 75% or more disability.Though, the Government has introduced a system of reservation for the impaired people, it is generally those who having less disabilty,perform better than the severely affected people and thus achieve higher percentage of marks in the qualifying examinations. Thus, they have more chances of being selected for appointment to the Government jobs and those with more severe impairment fail to get good marks and hence the govt jobs.They are more or less fully dependent on their parents or relatives for their sustenance and survival .This it is the duty of the govt to give them relaxation and consider their case on a different level so that they may get justice.The Government also ought to enhance the amount of scholarship for the severely impaired people to enable them to lead a normal life in this age of skyrocketing prices.
Yours etc….
