Like always DISABILITY gets the step motherly treatment in any agenda. its time we all raise a loud voice
Disabled find no placed in @AamAadmiParty manifesto. Only a passing reference at one place. For the AAP disabled do not fit into their full statehood scheme. Same with transgenders. The manifesto for the assembly elections were better. @AdvRajendraPal

agree with you completely
Avoiding the term 'disability' reinforces the idea that disability is an undesired state..Terms like 'differently abled, special needs or #divyang are euphemisms that deny recognition of disability as a valued aspect of diversity and identity #SayTheWord

We talk about social discrimination, but today similar cases are on a rampant in the rural areas. the cases are not reported or spoken about openly and women still have to experience torture and trauma for frivolous reasons. Its time that women learn to protect themselves .
Acid thrown on a woman in rural Bengal by her husband because she voted for the party her brother works for and not one husband is associated with. We are told, this is a "personal" quarrel and there's nothing political in it.

Agree that ACCESSIBILITY should indeed be top on the priority list
It is not easy to have 100% trust on those who carry you... always good to have control at least over your body for anybody, if not on other things... So, the planners, decision makers and authorities.. please make accessibility, the PRIORITY!

A non disabled person uses a car to go from one place to another and its exactly the same if we look at it if we really want to , keeping aside the cliched mentality , that a person with disability uses a wheelchair to move from one place to another. the PERSON comes FIRST

Women are more sensitive and have the strength and softness to pamper as well as gently reprimand others for their well-being.
Research findings have put out supportive evidence that more women than men are primarily involved in caregiving. https://t.co/X5UvA2qmN6

Its really important to conduct more workshops to create awareness and increase inclusion
For the #WorldLeprosyDay in 2018, ï¼ dpi_info stated that "We will work together with persons affected by leprosy to speak out and advocate for greater social participation," and they embody it. #GlobalAppeal #NothingAboutUsWithoutUS @ncpedp_india

Its time that ACCESSIBILITY in every aspect of the environment should be on priority 1
