Solution

The correct option is A Department of Disability Affairs
The government has created a separate department of “Disability Affairs,” which was earlier part of the Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment, to cater for the needs of an estimated 2.1-crore-strong disabled population. With the creation of this department, the Ministry will be able to focus more on policy issues and problems of Persons with Disabilities (PwDs), according to Minister for Social Justice & Empowerment Mukul Wasnik. The department will have a separate budget that would help in strengthening the existing schemes and formulating new ones, and also for technological innovations.
