Govt offices asked to be disabled-friendly

Since four years, Chief Commissioner for Office of Persons with Disabilities has been asking for an audit and problem points in existing public structures

Listen to this article :

Trying to live a normal life despite being physically disabled is a trial in itself, but what makes it more difficult is when public routes and offices don’t keep the needs of the disabled in mind. The Chief Commissioner for Office of Persons with Disabilities has issued a notice to all government offices and demanded an accessibility report of all government offices and public transport stations in the city. The Office has been demanding the audit to be conducted since the last four years but government offices and public transport organisations have not paid any heed.
