Madam @SmitaSabharwal sure would know about Maj Gen Ian Cardozo AVSM SM, first war-disabled officer of @adgpi to command a battalion; KRS Jamwal, ED Tata Industries, acclaimed Oncologist Dr Suresh Advani, both wheelchair-bound. Tragedy is when ability is viewed thru narrow lens!
As a trustee of @ncpedp_india, we see thousands of innovative outcomes by people with disabilities, which is inspirational in many ways. NCPEDP was instrumental in getting disabled people in UPSC & we see them struggling daily due to lack of awareness. If given a universal ecosystem, persons with disabilities can contribute to the mainstream society on an equal basis. It’s time we educate ourselves rather than excluding 20 Crore Indians from contributing to a better India.
Powerful image Hon PM! As a #WheelchairUser myself, I understand Anshuman's struggle. Your recognition champions disability inclusion. We look forward to your continued support.
