President Droupadi Murmu on August 3 said providing a dignified life to persons with disabilities is the responsibility of the entire society.
"We have to ensure that they get proper education, employment opportunities, accessible public places and a safer and better life," Ms. Murmu said at the golden jubilee celebrations of the National Federation of the Blind in New delhi.
In the Indian culture, she said, disability has never been considered a hindrance in acquiring knowledge and achieving excellence.
