Lahore Business-men Association for Rehabilita-tion of Disabled (Labard) has said that philanthropists could participate in the noble cause of rehabilitation of disabled persons by their donations and Zakat. The Labard Governing Body Members in a statement said that humanitarians could play a vital role for the rehabilitation of disabled as these people are suffering very hard due to lack of facilities and resources.
They said that more than 3.5 million Pakistani people are bearing any kind of disability and a number of disabled persons are compelled for begging due to lack of proper attention of concerned departments. They said that with a little attention these people could become an active part of the society.
They said that developed countries are giving special attention to the disabled persons. Not only buildings have special ramps but also facilities are being provided at all public places. They said that disabled persons in Pakistan are facing many difficulties due to lack of proper attention. They said that government should divert his attention towards the issue and ensure proper facilities at all building and public places. The members said that disabled persons could play a special role for prosperity of the country as they have some special God gifted abilities. They said that there are many examples that disabled persons have done some excellent job so they should not leave the optimism and work with new zeal.
