08 July 2022 Yes, u/s. 80DD of the act.
But you need to obtain certificate from ::: (i) a Neurologist having a degree of Doctor of Medicine (MD) in Neurology (in case of children, a Paediatric Neurologist having an equivalent degree); or
(ii) a Civil Surgeon or Chief Medical Officer in a Government hospital.
