The main purpose of Section 6 of the Limitation Act, 1963 is to:

Section 6 of the Limitation Act, 1963 lets a person who is "a minor or insane, or an idiot" when the period begins sue within the same period after the disability ceases. It protects such persons by postponing time; it does not bar or exempt their suits, and a disability arising after time has begun to run does not stop it under s.9.
