Physically challenged people are really to be cared for a lot and treated equally in the society. Though there are people who help the visually challenged in crossing the road, or getting into the bus, But at the same time there are also people who make fun of them. I am telling this because I have personally seen near a bus stop in Mehdipatnam, where I was waiting for my bus. There was a visually challenged person who was waiting for his bus, asking each and every bus driver whether it is the bus which he was waiting for..!! There was a so called "gang" which was sitting and making fun instead of helping. I soon went and told him that I will let him know when his bus comes. Later he got into his bus and while leaving he thanked and blessed me, that moment my eyes were filled with tears.I experienced the true and real satisfaction.
The next time I got into the bus and a lady was sitting in "physically challenged" seat and soon an educated young man who actually had to sit there asked her to please sit in the ladies seat which was vacant. But she refused to do that and was so rude in answering him. After a little argument, the conductor came and shouted at her and then she left from that place. I wanted to tell the lady to just get up and go. But even now I do not understand , "why I failed to do that??" By all this, I only understood one thing, it is not whether you are an illiterate or a literate, but what matters is whether you are human or not. There are many incidents as such, in which I reacted many times and failed to do so few times. But though we help them or not, it is better if we do not criticize and hurt them as we have no right to do so. Today they are equal to everyone in all aspects and take up challenges. Truly as a lyric from a Telugu song said " maa dhairyanni darsinchi daivaale tala dinchaga" . Even the God understand that he made a mistake as they deserve to be no. 1 in the society.
