if a person is blind and also has malignant cancer,can that person claim deduction under section 80U and under section 80DDB? He is a senior citizen . Since he has very limited insurance coverage, and incurring expenditure on chemotherapy, will he be allowed both deductions?

Yes, you can claim deductions under both sections 80U and 80DDB simultaneously, provided you meet the eligibility criteria for each section. The expenses incurred over chemotherapy can be claimed under Sec. 80DDB.
