It is not merely the case of India, you can find the similar customs in
traditional Africans, the women are even disallowed to touch the stick of
men.

We in India are hipocrates of first degree.
We regard body as nashwar, perishable, worthless, but regard it as most
important.
We can construe touch only in sexual terms.
So, the cultural and individual inhibitions against touching.
I would regard it as hateful if a lady refuses to lead me by hand and
guides me around hafhazardly.
But, the hate is not intentional, but culturally ingrained, so much so
that it is not hate prima facie.

No culture teaches hate. Even no culture teaches not to touch anybody if
he
is in trouble. We just fail to put ourselves in the same place.

Not sure if we can call this hate. This could have also happened due to
cultural reasons. This happened to me at the Colombo airport a few years
ago. When I landed at Colombo, a lady staff of the airport came to assist
me. She refused to allow me to hold her elbow. She told me that it was
culturally not acceptable.
It can also be due to a lack of training or orientation.

good, Disabled are hated ALL OVER IN SOCIETY EXCEPT IN FEW CONDITION,
IN GOVERNMENT OFFICES, PUBLIC TRANSPORT, SHOPPING MOLLS EVEN IN
HOSPITALS ALSO, RECENTLY I heard from one of my friend in Karnataka a
lady in laboratory who had to test the blind person Blood samples did
not hold his hand to take him to chair instead she was telling him to
come forward, turn left, search there is chair sit on that and even
after giving samples she did not lead him to door but left alone to go
out not even guided him the way to go out, I felt very sorry for this
incident, this happened in Shimoga in Karnataka.

I respond to Hindustan Times hate series stories. I’m a blind research

reportage on hate crimes faced by Dalits, people from the Northeast
and religious minorities have been very thought-provoking. Please do
one on disability as well. People with disabilities have to encounter
multiple hates due to their multiple identities. A disabled person can
be Muslim, scheduled caste and woman and his/her identities make
him/her vulnerable to countless taunts and slurs.
