    Need of sanitary facilities for disabled:

    Unfortunately, more than 8% of the population in India are disabled eigther by birth or accident or ill health. Among them 6% live in rural India. There are several causes effecting disabilities by malnutrition, lack of immunisation practices, early marriges and marriages within the kins etc. Most of these disabled persons are very poor and could not afford even to meet their daily living standards. Because of disability, these volunerable people have to face much hardships to depend up on others for their living needs. Especially, these people suffer lot with lack of sanitary facilities in their living places. They have to depend on others for attending their nature calls to take them to out of the village, which has become more burden to the other family members. Some times, these people get releaved their natural calls by the side of their house or within the house premises, which is making nuisance for the neighbours and other family members. Even, the teenage disabled are also using open places for their defecation, which is objectionable and not dignifible among villagers. Hence, it is a great necessity to provide sanitary facilities for these poor disabled to protect dignity and honour, which is the responibility of the civil socity.
