Dear mygov/Accessible India team,
PFA my entry for Photography Competition for Accessible India Campaign.
The picture is of KRIBHCO township in Surat which is a brilliant attempt at making the built environment barrier-free. Kerb ramps, signages, streetlights & residents make life a lot easier.

"Infrastructure here will accommodate you like a mother will do to her baby; thanks to Natinal Institute of Technology Raipur Hostel authority" -feeling specially-abled. Slopes and 5 elevator improves the mobility manifolds
The photograph is not of a public building but an Apartment Complex at Sector 15, Gurgaon. The name of Society is Rail Vihar. But it is an inspirational attempt for inclusion of physically challenged not relying solely on lifts specially in times of emergency like earthquakes, that Gurgaon is prone to.
