Madurai Demanding the government to increase their monthly assistance to ₹ 3,000 and above, members of Tamil Nadu Association for the Rights of All Types of Differently Abled and Caregivers (TARATDAC) staged a protest in front of the Collectorate here on Friday. T. Nagarajan, district president of the association, said, “The DMK, in its election manifesto, promised to increase the monthly assistance provided to the physically challenged persons from ₹ 1,000 to Rs.1,500. We are disappointed that it has not been fulfilled yet. Some governments like Telangana and Puducherry are providing assistance to the tune of ₹ 3000 and ₹ 5000 per month. We want the government to increase the amount, particularly for those with severe disabilities.”
