The developments of the hearing of the case on 26th May 2009 are as follows:
1. The railwaysgave a commitment in the form of an affidavit to comply with
the orders of the Delhi High Court and fill up the backlog of 4254
vacancies ment for the disabled persons over a period of 17 months.
2. The ban on recruitments in railways imposed by Delhi High Court on 2009
was lifted following this commitment on their part with the condition that 3

Subject: [AI] High Court Stops All Recruitments in Railways Till Quota
ForThe Disabled Is Filled Up
Dear All,
I am writing to theis forum after long. But I think this in an important
news to share, so I had resubcribed to the mailing list again and hope
this
time I would be able to contribute more to the group and Viz versa.
You may be aware that AICB is working for education, rehabilitation and
empowerment of the visually impairment persons. One of our salient
activities is judicial activation against discrimination of disabled
persons, particularly the visually impaired. And AICB has acieved an
important breakthrough and obtained a landmark order of Delh High Court
obtained in our ongoing case against Ministry of Railways pertaining to
not
filling up of 4254 vacancies reserved for disabled persons.
I am appending the press release issued for your information.
*New Delhi, Monday, 6th April 2009:* While hearing a petition filed by All
India Confederation of the Blind relating to violation of persons with
disabilities Act by the Indian Railways, a division bench of the Delhi
High
Court headed by Justice A. P. Shah (Chief Justice) sharply criticized the
railways for not adhering to the court orders of 20th January 2009
directing
it to maintain a roster with regard to appointments of disabled persons in
Railways.
Earlier, a joint report worked out by the petitioner and the respondent as
per the directions of the Delhi High Court had stated that there was a
whopping backlog to the extent of 4254 vacancies on which disabled persons
should have been appointed as per the persons with disabilities Act, but
the
railways did not adhere to the provisions of this Act.
Mr. Rajan Mani, council for the petitioner, All India Confederation of the
Blind, argued that maintaining a roster was the first step towards
ensuring
reservations for disabled persons. ”Clearly, the Railways is not serious
about fulfilling its statutory obligations,” he argued.
The honuorable Chief Justice observed that non compliance of court orders
amounted to contempt of the Court. He directed that Secretary Railways /
Member (staff recruitments) be present in person on Monday 13th April
2009.
The court also directed Railways to start special recruitment drive to
appoint disabled persons by utilizing at least 50% of the available
vacancies for this purpose. In a landmark order the court also directed
the
railways that no recruitment will take place unless provision is made to
fill up 4254 vacancies reserved for disabled persons.
