What’s so tough about getting a temporary ramp, when there are providers like @rampmycity in our very own city of Bengaluru who can customise for every requirement! Cost is not an issue, the intention is. When will people with disabilities get equal rights?

But now, finding another wheelchair accessible apartment and a house in the last few weeks has been a difficult journey. It's alarming to know that many brokers and homeowners think that a couple of steps can be passed off as accessible.

In many Indian apartments, the door of the bathroom is extremely narrow. No surprises, that being a quadriplegic, I take my bath also in a wheelchair. Hence, the door of the bathroom has to be at least 25 inches wide for me to get inside along with my shower-wheelchair.

My motorised wheelchair weighs 130 kgs, and I cannot be lifted along with it. When I say that I need a step free entrance, it actually has to be without steps, or with the facility of a Ramp.

Six years ago we were blessed to know that my workplace is in a campus that also has residential apartments, mall, hospital, school etc. The fact that we had to pay higher rent than nearby buildings, was an easy compromise.

Some bathrooms have a wash basin as soon as you enter, and some have the commode, blocking the entrance. In some cases there is a huge wardrobe right outside the bathroom door, making manoeuvring my way inside the bathroom difficult.

Being a wheelchair user, this meant I did not have to travel on the road to get to my office every day. I did not have to go to the ordeal of being lifted and shifted into a cab in the absence of accessible vehicle.
