The court also pulled up the petitioner,S C Jain,for terming dyslexia as a mental disorder and directed him to appear personally before it.

“Dyslexia is not a disease. It is not a mental disorder.

Let the petitioner appear before us personally. We would like to ask him about the disease,” the court said while pulling up the petitioner counsel for filing frivolous petition.

The court was hearing a PIL filed by Jain seeking its direction to the Centre to appoint clinical psychologist in hospitals for the treatment of mental disease including Dyslexia.
