System would allow pan-India validity, Centre says
The Centre this week notified June 1 as the date from which all disability certificates would be issued online, a requirement under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016.
The notification published on Wednesday made it mandatory for all States and Union Territories to issue the certificates to persons with disabilities (PwD) through the Department of Empowerment of PwD (DEPwD) portal. The unique disability ID (UDID) portal swavlambancard.gov.in was started in 2016 and States and UTs were given “adequate time to convert to online mode”, a DEPwD statement said on Thursday.
