Hi, There was a CCPD order asking UPSC for doing away with the practice of asking disabled people for producing photograph showing their disabilities. This news appeared in The Hindu on its Delhi page on 7 October 2014. (http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-otherstates/upsc-asked-to-withdraw-discriminatory-proforma/article6476862.ece). Further, if you wish to avail the orginal judgment do contact Dr Satendra Singh whose advocacy has compelled UPSC to do away with such discriminatory practice. You could handover this judgment and hope Railways reverses its approach. I Hope your struggle does not go in vain. All the best
