| Good news for PWDs: “Concession for the differently abled, escorts in Tamil Nadu government “ announced on the eve of “INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITY – 3 DECEMBER 2010”
We the Persons With Disability are delighted to see the news “Concession for the differently abled, escorts in Tamil Nadu government mofussil and town buses” brought out by SKR at Humanrightactivist-Yahoogroups on 9th Nov ‘2010. **
PWDs will be happy in case similar actions are initiated by central and other state governments of the country to introduce such facilities in the interest of PWDs who cannot move without an escort. Concession element may be reduced to some extent for availing air-conditioned accommodation but banning the same needs review.
It is urged that while observing the ensuing “INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITY – 3 DECEMBER 2010” suitable announce announcement in this regard may be made by respective governments.

** “Concession for the differently abled, escorts in Tamil Nadu government
mofussil and town buses
THENI: From now on, differently abled persons who could not move from one
place to another without the help of others can travel in government
mofussil and town buses, excluding air-conditioned buses, with their escorts
availing concession fare offered by the government, said Collector P
Muthuveeran.
In a release here on Monday, he said both could pay only 25 per cent of the
actual fare to travel in any corporation buses.
Certificate needed
They should produce original doctor's certificate stating that the bearer of
the letter could not travel without the escort and the national identity
card issued to the differently abled to the conductor.
The differently abled person could get this certificate from any doctor in
government hospital and primary health centres.
Forms for obtaining the doctor's certificate were available with the
