I got a mail from another person, named Sindhav Jayadeep, who suffers from a similar physical condition. Below is the email conversation that went between him and me today. I have requested him to keep me updated on whatever follows in his case. I consider this to be another fight for one's right to begin here.
About license procedure and certificate needed.

Hi Jaydeep,
I am also happy to help in whatever way I can to people like you. :)
Well, I can understand that the Rajkot officials must be novices. There is much of a chance that they do not know the rules themselves! So, you can only pity them.
Here is what you should do now:-

I got the permanent License issued three days ago. :-)
I had gone for the test after five months of learning license being issued. I had gone there with both my car and bike as the license I had applied for was for both two wheeler and the four wheeler (LMVs). The enquiry people had ensured that I had both vehicles of my own out there for giving the test. I had bought car particularly for this purpose. (I am also going to sell it back now :-) ).The guy who was taking the test was known to me. The first day I went to him he did not put me to test, telling me that he did not want to fail me! :-) He asked me to come the next day and everything would be cleared. Well, he was a nice talking guy this time. He did not mince those 'no' words anymore. He recognized even after five months and was behaving very kindly this time.

As I said in my last post, I had to file an RTI appeal with the DC of the Transport Department of the Delhi government. The MLO at Vasant Vihar had refused to give me the Driving License for two wheeler motorbike and LMVs. My RTI appeal had enough evidence that the MLO was wrong and that there is no such ruling in the Motor Vehicle Act of the Govt. of INdia that disallows a handicapped person to drive. I was right. The DC, Mr. Ajay Chagti, replied as I expected. In his answer to my RTI, he said that a one eyed person is allowed to hold a Driving License given that he furnishes the medical certificate as I had furnished.

It has been a long time overdue to share my experiences of driving. I have been driving bike for last 20 years now. Starting from a bicycle to now a brand new CBZ extreme from Hero Honda. I have never had any issues with driving. I learnt driving a car last year. I have not yet bought a car yet, but plan to buy one soon after I move out of my university. I already have a driving license from my home town. But since last nine years I have been staying in Delhi and my earlier license is about to expire. So I need to get my driving license renewed.
