1. What is your view about World Disability Day? Does observing it really help?
Observing the International Day of People with Disability (December 3) does ring a bell in the minds of people about the subject or the persons affected by it. We look at the Day as an acknowledgement of the needs and rights of disabled persons. By observing World Disability Day, you’re influencing a progressive mindset among the non-disabled. But having said that, attitudes changing without any concrete change, makes no sense. Hence, it’s about time we take that leap and ensure that some action is taken to enable the mainstream inclusion of the disabled and that is not possible unless people implement the already existing laws.
