The problem of the disabled and their rehabilitation had occupied human mind ever since, became aware of the magnitude of the problem. The movement of all the things animate and inanimate fascinate the people, as if motion being synonymous with life. Our legislators have finally able to perceive the problems and took a bold step in form of a comprehensive legislation for the disabled. The law of disability treats disability as civil rights rather than a health and welfare issue. We have made a doctrinal approach to unravel the problems.

The book is aimed and designed to cater the legal assistance to persons concerned. We have dealt with the legal remedies and courtroom guidelines in a synergic manner to provide a clear picture of the law at one platform. An effort has been made to conceptualize key terms as impairment, disability, handicap and reformative measures. A cornucopia of case law has been collected under lucid rubrics to resolve the legal issues in hand.
