Disable persons are unable to get all or least facilities in Pakistan
Lahore, Jan 20: Problems Of Disable Persons There are many problems which are being faced by physically disable persons such as blind deaf and there is some defect with leg hand etc.I am personally physically disable person from left leg and  experiencing these problems. So I am in a better position to point out problems and suggest some remedies so that these persons can be facilitated to spent life a useful and respectable Pakistani.
1-In Pakistan a disable person is unable to get all the facilities which Pakistani law provides until he has a certified proof of disability. Bad luck is that in our country a person who is right has to face difficulties to prove that he is right. In Pakistan this certificate is being provided by the district assessment board in every district head quarter hospital.
The procedure is too difficult and teasing that a disable person without approach cannot get this certificate. No person has proper information. Like all other sectors here is also lack of responsibility and regularity in officers. A disable person cannot submit registration form until surgeon approves. The surgeon like all other officers is also irregular. A disable person has to visit for several months to find surgeon and start the registration process. In my opinion a disable person thinks that his birth is a great mistake in this world. If a person pays bribery if  although he is partially disable or not disable can get certificate easily. social officers who are appointed are very responsible and regular but they have no authority. According to my opinion the social officer and surgeon should be linked. The surgeon and the social officer should sit on the same place so that surgeons can be made regular as well as efficiency of registration process can be improved .
2-In Pakistan like all other useable goods supporting equipments for disable persons such as sticks ,wheel chairs, listening instruments for deaf persons are very costly. They are not affordable by any common person .It means that we are pushing back the disable persons in race of life. The government provides subsidy in all sectors but till now government has not taken any measures to provide these instruments to disable persons at concessional prices. I request the government to take some measures to provide necessary equipments to disable persons at concessional rates.
3-In our country at all educational levels 2% quota is reserved for physically disable students who provide district assessment board registration certificate of disability. For a student it is very difficult to get that certificate due to following reasons.
(a)Lack of proper information
(b)complicated system of registration
(c)Lack of responsibility among registration staff So the student has to wait for years for the registration certificate.
According to my opinion 2% quota is very less and not according to requirements so all disable students should be provided admission except those which are below a minimum level of merit. For this purpose  seats can be increased according to requirement. The merit should also separate and low then the normal persons.
