The district social welfare department will soon complete infrastructure work on the disabled-friendly building of the zilla parishad, which was built two years ago. The deadline set is August 15 to make the new building would the first barrier-free building in Maharashtra.“There are no obstacles in the entire building and it’s well furnished with ramps, railings and disabled- friendly toilets.

Recently, we decided to install a ‘beep’ machine for the visually impaired at the main entrance of the building and at every floor, near the elevator, so that it is easy for them to roam around,” said social welfare officer Sanjay Kadam.u00a0
