Under the Disabilities Act of India, children with disabilities have the right to free education until they reach the age of eighteen in schools that are integrated, or in ‘special,’ schools. Children with disabilities have the right to appropriate transportation, removal of architectural barriers, as well as the restructuring of curriculum and modifications in the examination system. Scholarships, uniforms, books, and teaching materials are all provided to children with disabilities for free in India.

Children with disabilities in India have access to special schools that are equipped with vocational training facilities, and non-formal education. India provides training institutions for teachers in order to establish manpower. Parents of children with disabilities in the nation can move to an appropriate court for the redress of grievances in regards to their children with disabilities; Mobility Products for Handicapped.

Parents of children with disabilities in India are required to obtain a, 'disability certificate,' in order to access the facilities mentioned above; they can obtain this certificate from their nearest government hospital, where an Identity Card from the, 'Office of the Commissioner for Disabilities,' will issue it. People in rural areas can obtain this Identity Card from their Block Development Officer’s Office (BDO).

Recent Disability Figures in India:

• At least 1.2 million people with disabilities in India are living in households consisting only of people with disability.
• While the total people with disabilities increased by just over 22 per cent over a decade, from almost 22 million in the Census 2001 to 26.8 million in 2011, the number of people with disabilities living on their own has nearly doubled, jumping by 84 per cent in the same period.
• About 6.3 lakh people with disabilities lived alone in single member households and 2.7 lakh two-member households had two disabled people each (about 5.5 lakh in all) staying on their own in households without any non-disabled person.
• Among the larger states, Jammu & Kashmir has the highest proportion of households with at least one person with disability, over 12 per cent, followed by Odisha with 10 per cent of such households.
• Interestingly, in Delhi and Tamil Nadu, which have strong disability rights movements compared to other states, only 5 per cent of households were identified as having one or more people with disabilities. These movements have consistently maintained that official data is underestimating the actual number of people with disabilities in India.
• In the 2011 census, 92 per cent of the nearly 25 crore households in the country had no people with disabilities. Over two crore households had one or more people with disabilities. Almost 71 per cent of these households (1.46 crore) were in rural areas while the remaining 60.5 lakh-plus households were in urban areas.
• There was a fall in the proportion of households with one or more people with disabilities from about 10 per cent in 2001 to just 8 per cent in 2011, though the absolute number of such households has gone up by over 20 lakh or 2 million.

Equality for all cyclists: The social justice case for mass cycling

Do busy roads put off cyclists with disabilities, women or older people? And if so, could local authorities be made to improve cycle infrastructure under equality legislation?

It’s fair to say that, for all the government promises of a “cycling revolution”, not a vast amount has happened in recent years to improve the lot of cyclists on Indian roads. Campaigns, pestering MPs, direct action – nothing seems to have worked.

So how about just taking legal action under equalities legislation, forcing local authorities to provide proper cycle infrastructure?

OK, it’s probably not going to happen soon, even if you could find somebody rich and patient enough to fund a fairly speculative test case.

Handicapped Tricycle

But the idea, is nonetheless fascinating as it highlights one of the lesser-aired arguments for a more cycle- and walking-friendly world: the issue of social justice.

Numerous other studies on “environmental inequality” have noted that poorer people, who own the fewest cars, often live by the busiest roads.

An extension to this is the idea that the forms of transport arguably most accessible to all income groups – walking and cycling – are the ones least catered for by public infrastructure.

Writing on the issue, these inequalities also take in, while in countries like the Netherlands about as many women as men get about by bike, in England a fairly macho cycling culture, which often necessitates mixing it with fast-moving cars, partly explains why little more than a quarter of bike commuters are female.

This is often an ignored area, but the statistics show that 5.1% of cycle commuters in India are people whose day-to-day activities are limited in some way – that is to say they have some form of disability. While this isn’t much below the total proportion of commuters with disabilities, at 6.8%, there is a huge variation between areas for bike commuting among those with disabilities, ranging from 0.2% to 25.9%.

Merry Christmas From Typist Who Is Wheelchair Fencing Champion

Merry Christmas from Chandrakumar B

When Chandrakumar B sold vegetables in a Wheelchair in Purusawalkam market, he never dreamed that 10 years later he would travel to Hungary, China, Bangkok and France as a sportsman. Today, as a four-time national wheelchair fencing champion, he has lived out the dream.

The 40-year-old physics graduate and typist with Corporation of Chennai says everyday life is not very different from competing in a fencing suit. Chandrakumar, who won a gold medal at the 7th national championships held in Chhattisgarh earlier this month, was affected by polio when he was 2 years old and has a 65% disability in the left leg. He uses a wheelchair only while taking part in the sport.

He registered with the employment board in 1988 and had to wait for 20 years to get a call for a job. "I was getting older and had resigned myself to never getting a job,". He got a call in 2008 and joined the civil supplies and consumer protection department in Ezhilagam.

That was a lucky year, one in which a childhood friend, Venkatesh, introduced him to fencing. "Venkatesh is disabled too and we used compete in shotput and discus throwing as children," Chandrakumar said. "I took part in a training programme the Paralympic Association of Tamil Nadu conducted at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. I initially thought it was just fun, poking around. But when I learnt technique and developed skills in the sport, I started to perform well, and I was hooked," he said.

Chandrakumar chose the epee over the two other fencing weapons, the foil and sabre, despite it being heavier than both because it allows for slower combat tempo and sudden bursts of speed.

Bangalore-based sports psychologist Shree Advani said fencing is a dangerous combat sport regardless of whether a competitor is on his feet or in a wheelchair. "It is all about outsmarting and overpowering your opponent, which Chandrakumar possibly finds easy because he has mastered difficulties in the past," he said.

Chandrakumar's struggles are similar to those other people with disability face, but he attributes his success to meeting the right people. With support from corporates and Rotary Club and money that his friends pooled, he made it to the International Wheelchair and Amputee Sports World Games, 2011, and bagged a bronze - just three years after he took up the sport.

Chandrakumar, an advocate for the rights of the disabled, helped establish the Tamil Nadu Differently-Abled Federation Charitable Trust. "Accessibility is a problem for the disabled, both at the workplace and in public," he said. "We are respected when we compete abroad but feel like castaways as soon as we land at an Indian airport."

As a result he's found it difficult to play outside with other children, often having to watch them from indoors.

Matthew's mum, Kathryn, explained that the tricycle has had an immediate impact on her sons quality of life: "He's taken to it so well. Until now the lack of power in his legs made him unable to pedal. But the new tricycle has been engineered to make pedalling that much easier, and now he pedals everywhere with a huge smile on his face."

The tricycle has a steering rod which enables Kathryn, along with dad Frank, to steer whilst Matthew puts in the leg work; further developing the muscle tone in is limbs.

Kathryn explained that it's not just about physical development: "Obviously, the more Matthew uses the tricycle the more strength he will develop in his legs, however, it's also making him a more confident boy. He's pushing himself to go faster and he's now much more involved with other children. He's competing against them, so the tricycle is improving him both physically and emotionally."

Matthew's 4-year-old sister, Laura, is also benefiting from the tricycle as it allows the whole family to go out together. This has helped in further developing her relationship with her brother and he's even allowed her to have a go on his new tricycle: "Matthew has let her ride it a couple of times, in the garden, but she knows that it's his 'special' bike," said Kathryn.

History Of Tricycle

A three-wheeled wheelchair was built in 1655 or 1680 by a disabled German man, Stephan Farffler, who wanted to be able to maintain his mobility. Since he was a watch-maker, he was able to create a vehicle that was powered by hand cranks.

In 1789, two French inventors developed a three wheeled vehicle, powered by pedals; They called it the tricycle.

19th century tricycle used in Iran

In 1818, British inventor Denis Johnson patented his approach to designing tricycles.[clarification needed] In 1876, James Starley developed the Coventry Lever Tricycle, which used two small wheels on the right side and a large drive wheel on the left side; power was supplied by hand levers. In 1877, Starley developed a new vehicle he called the Coventry Rotary, which was "one of the first rotary chain drive tricycles." Starley's inventions started a tricycling craze in Britain; by 1879, there were " twenty types of tricycles and multi-wheel cycles ... produced in Coventry, England, and by 1884, there were over 120 different models produced by 20 manufacturers." The first front steering tricycle was manufactured by The Leicester Safety Tricycle Company of Leicester, England in 1881 which was brought to the market in 1882 costing £18. They also developed a folding tricycle at the same time.Buy online Tricycle for handicapped at lowest price and cheap cost in India from wheelchair India online shopping store of Tricycle manufacturer, distributor, and supplier of variety of Tricycles at low price in India  for handicapped and disability product like  Disabled Tricycle  Deluxe Double Hand Drive, Tricycle Deluxe Single Hand Drive, Tricycle Standard Double Hand Drive, Tricycle Regular Single Hand Drive, Standard Single Hand Drive Tricycle,  along with that we offer huge discount.

Tricycles were used by riders who did not feel comfortable on the high wheeler s, such as women who wore long, flowing dresses. In the UK, upright tricycles are sometimes referred to as "barrows". Many trike enthusiasts ("trikes") in the UK belong to the Tricycle Association, formed in 1929. They participate in day rides, tours and time trials. Massed start racing of upright tricycles is limited to one or two criteriums such as in Bun-gay, Suffolk each year.

Human powered tricycles

A tricycle, often abbreviated to trike,is a three-wheeled vehicle, commonly human-powered.

Tricycles are used by children and adults alike for their stability versus a bicycle. In the United States and Canada, adult-sized tricycles are used by senior adults for recreation, shopping, and exercise. In Asia and Africa, tricycles called pedicabs are used to transport passengers; tricycles are also used to transport freight and make deliveries.

In the Philippines, a tricycle is a for hire, public utility vehicle consisting of a motorcycle and an attached passenger sidecar; it is not to be confused with the trisikad, an unmotorised, three-wheeled pedicabs also found in the country.

Human-powered trikes are powered by pedals or hand cranks. Motorized trikes can be powered by motorcycle engines, smaller automatic transmission scooter motors, or electric motors.
