Efforts are underway to make the Goa State Commission for Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) a separate department, said Guruprasad Pawaskar, the state commissioner for PwDs. "Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan have a separate department for social justice and empowerment of PwDs. A lot of things can be put in place and we can do many more things for PwDs if it's a separate department," he said.
