Disability Rights Association of Goa (DRAG) has also raised this issue, but the government has not paid heed to their demand. This is unacceptable,\u201d Alemao said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">He said that the government had announced it would increase the monthly assistance under the Disability Social Security (DSS) scheme from Rs 2,000 to Rs 6,000.
