The Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act has been enacted in the year

  • A.1992
  • B.1995
  • C.1999
  • D.2016

Answer: D

The Act was enacted in 2016.

The Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 replaced the Persons with Disabilities Act of 1995. It raised the number of recognised disabilities from 7 to 21, gave children with benchmark disabilities the right to free education from 6 to 18 years, and requires inclusive education in government and aided institutions.

1995 is the year of the earlier Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, and 1992 is the year of the Rehabilitation Council of India Act, which is why those years appear as distractors.
