ITANAGAR, Dec 2: Governor Brig. (Dr.) B. D. Mishra (Retd.) has extended his warm greetings to the differently abled people of the State, as also of other parts of the country and the world on the special occasion of International Day of Persons with Disabilities. He expressed his hope that the occasion will create awareness for the cause of the differently abled persons and promote their dignity, safety, security, rights, and equal opportunity for their progress in society.
In his message, the Governor said that determination and optimism are the cornerstones that enable the people to become achievers. The hardest thing for the differently abled people to overcome is not the physical disability, but the mental state which induces the sense of disability. It is, therefore, the mental robustness that plays an important role in claiming the right status by the disabled people in social and economic life, even within their own families, he said.
On the Day, the Governor urged upon the people to accept their individual responsibility to focus on providing conducive ambience, sustainable life prospect and developmental opportunity to our brethren who are differently abled. I am confident that our surging forward culture and traditions will rise to the occasion and provide the wherewithal to promote the welfare of the differently abled people, he said.
Let us recognise, vitalise and prioritise the need of the differently abled people and stand by them to make them the equal contributing member of our society, the Governor said in his message.
