However, there were not 40 but even less than ten questions, which were of only elementary and materialistic level, such as whether I have mobile, TV., cable or broadband, Vehicle, etc. but they did not absolutely ask me anything about my disability,education, caste, profession, annual income etc. I again and again asked them whether there were any more questions, but they repeatedly declined.

Out of these questions, the question no.13 is asking about Disability with no break up different disabilities and its percentage of disability. I happened to see the questionnaire of past years. For the year 1881 census the questions asked were Infirmities 1. Unsound mind 2. Deaf-mutes from birth 3. Blind 4. Lepers The RPWD Act 2016 mentions about 21 categories of disabilities. It appears the Government is not serious about finding out the different categories of disabilities and its percentage for each individual. Unless we have definite information and data about the people with different disabilities, the government cannot take the right decision and make the right policies. I have attached copies of the latest notification and earlier notifications including the 1881 census. After 1881 census there was no attempt made by the Census India to understand the issues relating to disabled people. I request all of you to please look into this and let us come to some conclusion as to how to take this matter forward so that justice is done to disabled people. With regards, K.
