The purpose of presenting this paper is to highlight the role of the RPwD Act, 2016 in special reference with implication for inclusive education. To meet the desired objective of the study, literary review of the RPwD Act 2016 and the related studies has been done. The RPWD (2016) is definitely a mile stone in the development of person with disabilities as it ensures the rights of person with disabilities without any kind of discrimination enhance respect as well as dignity and moreover also lay emphasis on the full participation with inclusion in society.
