Govt to devise equal opportunity policy for divyangs

Friday, 17 May 2019 | SR | New Delhi

The Delhi Government will devise an Equal Opportunity Policy (EOP) for people with disabilities living in the national Capital. The decision was taken in a meeting called by Social Welfare Minister Rajendra Pal Gautam on Thursday. The meeting was attended by senior officers to discuss the modalities of the new policy. The EOP will be prepared in consultation with the disability commissioner, people with disabilities and non-governmental organisations (NGOs),” the official said.

“Under the proposed policy, in cases of discrimination, a gazetted officer will head a committee consisting of an employee with disability and and a disability expert from outside,” she said.
