Despite the cold conditions prevailing in the district at night, differently abled persons squatted on the roadside here to draw the attention of the government to consider their demands.
The association members from many parts of the district, including Dindigul Town, Reddiarchatram, Sanarpatti and Vadamadurai assembled in front of the revenue office here on Tuesday. They were led by the district secretary Bagat Singh.
Their demands included a monthly financial assistance of ₹ 3000 for differently-abled persons and ₹ 5000 per month for those who suffered serious problems due to the disability. The agitators sought reservation in jobs in government offices among others.
