K.Vijayakumar vs Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation on 9 April, 2014
28. The decision in Krishna Bahadur v. Purna Theatre and Others [(2004) 8 SCC 229], relied on by the respondents is also not applicable for the reason that nothing has been placed on record to show that waiver on account of some compromise came into being and the conduct of the appellant herein also do not indicate that he waived his statutory right under the provisions of the Disabilities Act. As already pointed out, Disabilities Act, being a beneficial legislation, has to be interpreted liberally in favour of the person who suffered disability.
