B M C disability survey
This is a newsitem I read in yesterday's Times of India on Page 8 "BMC Disability Survey The BMC will be carrying out a disability survey beginning April 5. Enumerators will be surveying by house-to-house visits and collecting information of disable persons about disability certificates and other information." Please see that proper information is given by you and your family and please tell your friends too. These surveys are very useful for advocacy and for changing the systems. They form the basis of allocation of resources. However these surveys must be properly done. We as stake holders need to cooperate, disclose information and proactively ensure that proper data is recorded. We cannot hide our disability and we should encourage others to disclose theirs. Lets get out of the mindset that disability is a stigma.
