The case is like this: This Pune (Maharashtra) based man was working in a government school as a hindi teacher for class 9 students. In 2000 he was fired from his teaching job as he lost most of his vision due to retina detachment. In 2001 he sued them in the state comissioner for PWDs' office. Long after, in 2007, the SCPD decided the case in this man's favour. The school went to the high court which also adjudged the case in his favour. Now the school has taken the case to the Divisional Justice in Mumbai. The divisional justice sent him for his eyesight examination to a government hospital and also has asked the doctor whether he can work as a teacher with his vision loss. We, as well as the lawyer, are surprised that how can a doctor/ophthalmologist would decide whether a blind / LV person do a job. Their job is to examine and certify the disability. if the impairment is recognised by the PWD act as a disability, then a blind / LV person is not a misfit in a teaching job which has been identified by the government for VI people. Moreover as per the PWD act the government cannot throw out their permanent employees if they develop some disability. Anyways, apart from some other info / connections, the lawyer of this teacher wants to contact few other blind / LV people who are in to teaching jobs. People in and around Pune & Mumbai would be easy for them to contact, but VI teachers across the country are requested to come forward and help this guy get his long awaited equal right.
