Disability-friendly university in Ranchi: The education department also proposed a 'Navothan Scholarship Scheme', under which the government will reimburse the full course fee of meritorious orphan and physically challenged students of the state.

A young girl in Uttar Pradesh's Lakhimpur Kheri, a student of class 5, lives with her elderly grandparents after her mother died and her father married someone else.

The Delhi High Court directed the ministry of railways to ensure that all students with disabilities who need to travel to the national capital to appear in physical exams being held by Delhi University are provided confirmed tickets.

The High Court has also asked the university to verify the number of students belonging to 'persons with disability' (PwD) category who were left out of online Open Book Examination (OBE) and would sit for exams physically.

The council also decided to accept tuition fee waiver to SC, ST and physically handicapped students enrolled in MTech courses in NITs and IIEST.

A physically-disabled teenager, who writes with his legs due to his hands being deformed, has been admitted to a government school in Madhya Pradesh's Barwani district after being denied admission by several other institutions due to his disability.

A learning disability or a mental disorder cannot be termed a physical disability, the Bombay High Court said while refusing to direct the IIT Bombay to give a formal degree to a girl student suffering from dyscalculia, although she has completed a master's course.

The Supreme Court today said it will pass order on a plea seeking to make higher education institutions physically accessible for disabled students.

The centre will make a slew of provisions for students with physical disabilities in the upcoming education policy and has already asked schools to provide adequate facilities to them, Education Minister Prakash Javadekar said today.
