How do you think we can further change our outlook and attitude towards the specially-abled? What efforts do we need to take in bringing them to the mainstream?

Site: Gurgaon Aadhaar Card Registration Office (as of March 17, 2015) Issue: Lengthy Staircase, no elevator visible and no wheelchair access to the Aadhaar card office on the first floor. Question: How can a disabled person on a wheelchair get photographed and fingerprinted for Aadhaar if there is no access to the office, which is on the first floor?

Through these kind of case studies we can definitely bring an attitude change. Indian woman becomes first female amputee to climb Mount Everest http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/nepal/10072600/Indian-woman-becomes-first-female-amputee-to-climb-Mount-Everest.html

Ade Adepitan presents a Travel show for the BBC. He suffers from Polio and can be seen on Television presenting the show, very much like the youngsters in the image above - On a wheelchair. Why can't Indian GECs have somebody like an Ade Adepitan. If there is one, i havent seen him/her.

1. Side railing should be provided inside the lifts in hospitals. This will help the patients as well as the differently-abled. Currently in some government hospitals they are not provided which makes it difficult to patients. 2.People should change their mind set to walk in hospitals. Lifts in the hospitals should be dedicated for the patients.Though it is mentioned in the lifts, people dont bother it and board on into the lift. This makes the ones who needs the lift most to wait for long time.

Respected Sir/Madam, it is submitted that it would be better if government considers including differently-abled parents of Central Government employees who are staying with them,as their dependent for CGHS facility even if they have an income of more than ( Rs. 3500/- present dependency criteria ). This will be an act of inclusiveness and help them getting better treatment. This is also justified because they require special attention and care. Thanks.

"Change your thoughts and you change the world".Treat them as a normal human live.Peoples like Girish Sharma who lost a leg when he was a kid and now he is a badminton champion,Preethi Srinivasan was the captain of Tamil Nadu women’s cricket team after swimming accident that left her paralyzed,she continues to inspire other lives through her organization Soulfree..when we think about these people we should be ashame of ourselves as we did nothing great in our life compared to them.

Government should organise rallies and awareness programmes so that our mentality can be changed. Organisations like NARAYAN SEVA SANSTHAN should be promoted on an international level

Society Awareness Program is a must. Differently-abled does not only fall with physical differences; it also goes with our psychology. Along with handicapped, eunuchs and prostitutes have limited access to governance and livelihood. Single Window Public Mobile Helpline is the need of the time, for any kind of hooliganism and terrorism including human trafficking. Government should bring up Rape & Domestic Violence Tribunal in every jurisdiction, at an earliest.
