These are two legislation i am aware of for handicapped people .In circumstances wherein handicapped people are harrased,a simple fir can be filed to police but police considers the situation and court also takes into account.apart from that,equal oppurtunities also protecrs disables people but the problem is few people know about such laws.hope it helps

1.Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation Act,1955

 

2.The Industrial Disabilities Act allows disabled people to demand equal opportunities in the workplace
