R P W D ACT 

* FULFILLS THE obligations of UNCRPD
* gives the rights of entitlements of the PWD s quoted as ദിവ്യാങ് ജ ൻസ് -"divyangjans" in hindi
*it is a right based act
* it provides effective mechanisms for ensuring their empowerment and true inclusion in the society

The act respects  diversity and differences
 *autonomy and decision making
* a PWD " termed as a divyangjan" has right for 
-legal capacity,

-indiscrimination,
-reasonable accomodation
if her /his parent does not take care of the PWD,the collector (in the position of the district magistrate) has to be in charge of the person
*******************************************

* provision for removal of social /physical /economical/cultural/ attitudinal /and environmenta barriers
* no strict definition of disability ( it is just a concept.more issues may be added.eg : rape vicitims,acid attack victims)
note : transgenders are persons with specian rights and they need not be included in PWD

* PROVIDES FOR RESERVATIONS IN JOBS-4 % and first turn in appointment-still only one percent is not included in PSC

ശാരീരികമോ മാനസികമോ ബൗദ്ധികമോ ഇന്ദ്രിയപരമോ ആയ വൈകല്യങ്ങൾ ദീർഘകാലം നിലനില്കുന്നവരും പ്രതിബന്ധങ്ങളോട്  ഇടപെടുമ്പോൾ മറ്റുള്ളവർക്കൊപ്പം സമൂഹത്തിൽ പൂർണമായും ഫലപ്രദമായും ഇടപെടാൻ തടസ്സങ്ങളുള്ളവരു മാ ണ്  ഭിന്നശേഷിക്കാർ
