1) The disabled also have virtues and are capable of and have all the right to lead an economically empowered and independent life and command due respect from the society.

2) It is therefore the duty of the family, the community and the society by and large to accept and respect them as they are, be sensitive to their problems and shoulder the responsibility (each at their level) of assisting them to get their due rights .
While it was heart rending to hear about the travails that the participants on the show had to face in their endeavour to find a respectable foothold in the society, the confidence that they had in themselves, the happiness that exuded from their faces as they explained their journey towards success , would have made many a so called ‘abled viewer’ salute them in awe and would have perhaps made some of them feel weaker inspite of all their abilities.
I would also like to endorse the views of Mrs. Bhagyashree P. Kunte from Aundh Pune, mother of a special child who has also commented and commended about this episode.. While i would like to say “Hats off to you Aamir” for dealing with this issue which is of special interest to me, so wonderfully, it’s my earnest request that in any of your forthcoming shows please take up the cases of children afflicted with for eg. Down’s Syndrome, Autism, MR and Learning Difficulties , especially from the point of view of Rehabilitation and residential facilities and how some of these provisions which are documented can be effectively implemented by the Government . Perhaps we could have a mandate for this aspect also as you spelt for Inclusive schools.
The parents in our society are like Rubbers who in their attempt to rub off the mistakes (problems here)in the lives of their children, fade away gradually, hoping that someday their children will write a new leaf. But if they are parents of Special Children, for whom encouraging hopes are not yet created/implemented by the Govt. for leading an Economically Independant and secure life , the worries of the parents doesn’t stop even after they have faded away. They would be rolling in their graves with worry & concern for the pearls of their Eyes.

Here I would like to express my feelings in a few lines in Hindi

Na maange daya ki bheek
Na koi daan ka bojh,
Bus chaanhe to itna bhai ,
Kholo apne dil ke duar
Aur dekho kitna bhara hai hum mein
kabliyat aparampar.

Hum chaahen andhe hon ya phir Gunge bahre,
Mand Buddhi Ya ang vikalang,
ya doosra koi durbalta ka naya roop,
Par itna jaano mere sabal bandhu,
Chaah aur koshish se , himmat aur lagaan se,
kar saktein hain apne jeevan naiyya ko tadi paar

Sirf itni si dua karte hain ,
Ho sake to bano hamara humsafar bhai
Aur badhao apna dosti ka haath.
