Kunal Singh vs Union Of India & Anr on 13 February, 2003
In the light of the decision
in Kunal Singh v. Union of India & Anr. 2003 I CLR 786), it is
clear that S.47 deals with an employee who has acquired
disability during service and it is not necessary that he should
have suffered 40% disability. The test is whether an employee,
after acquiring disability, has become unsuitable for the post he
was holding earlier, and it is provided by S. 47 that in such a
case, the employee could be shifted to some other post with the
same pay-scale and service benefits, and if it is not possible to
adjust the employee against any such post, he may be kept in a
supernumerary post until a suitable post is available or he attains
the age of superannuation, whichever is earlier.

acquisition of such disability. In that case, the appellant driver
was discharged from service on the ground that he had acquired
colour blindness which rendered him unfit to work as driver.
Rejecting the argument that colour blindness would not fall under
S.2(i) of the Act, the Division Bench held that the term disability
used in S.47 of the Disabilities Act would encompass not only
those contained in S.2(i), but also those which disabled a person
from performing a work which he held immediately prior to
acquisition of such disability. It was held that the benefits of
benevolent legislation could not be denied on the ground of mere
hyper technicalities. The S.L.P. filed against the said judgment of
the Division Bench was also dismissed by the Supreme Court."
