you are right sir, until the tables of higher authorities will not be turned
upside down, it won't work. we had done many times in my school time it with
social wellfare department in MP.

Absolutely agree with your views Madam!
But as Mr. Dinesh aptly pointed out our constraints in regard to
number politics prevailed in the country, who will pay attention to
our hue and cry?
Delhi is full with NGOs working for different disability related
problems. Thousands of physically challenged students, residents can
be found in every nook and corner of the city.
Can not we organise mass demonstration, road jam, and agitation in
front of Parliament, Prime Minister, President, ministry’s office and
to different stake holders?
Or, cannot we launch the “Airport Gherao” for even for few hours?
Cannot these attempts be followed in different states with ample media
coverage?
As few days back one of the list members had pointed out that when
rights are not granted with dignity, one should strive hard to snatch
it as due right. For how long we will keep on petitioning and begging
for our human rights?
I think the time demands us now to come out of our houses, offices and
cocoon of intellectualism. Discussing such disgraceful incidents in
our drawing rooms and in limited forums is not going to serve the
purpose sometimes. It requires action, and action as an eye opener for
rest of the world.
Few may consider these words as inflammatory and damaging, but my
question is that if different casts, religious and minority groups can
jam roads for months, the disabled community only does not have right
to follow this only because we are helpless, or, in other words, the
helplessness which has made us peace loving,?

I agree. but who is willing to hear our complaints/request? Since we are
minority, and our society is not going to decide their political victory,
mostly none of the stupid politicians are gona take care of our request,
in
my opinion.
With Kind Regards,
Dinesh.

Subject: [AI] Harassment of the disabled people by the air lines .
Hello , In view of the recent harassment cases by the airlines with
the disabled people, I would suggest that it is high time that we
demand Constitutional amendment for protection under Article 15. Such
instances must be declared an offence and must be penalized .We must
strive for a statutory protection somewhat on the same lines as
provided to SC/ST. Such acts are violation of the civil rights and
civic liberty of the disable people and should be considered an
infringement of the right to live with dignity under Article 21 of the
Constitution, If the right to travel abroad can come within the
purview of the right to life than such acts also amount to violation
of the Human Rights of the disabled people. There must be protection
officers with power to take action on complaint and the power to take
action suo moto .Not to say that such legal provisions would cure the
problem but it will certainly create awareness and may also act as
deterrent .This will make such instances an issue of Human Right
violation and sensitize the people.
