[Resolved]  Housing Society — Denying basic amenity for physically challenged

Address:

Thane, Maharashtra

Dear all,

I stay in kalyan with my parents and my sister. My sister is unfortunately a victim of polio and is 80 % affected. She can only move on a wheel chair.
We stay in fourth floor and the building i stay has lift and power backup. But from the ground floor to the ground there are 2 stairs and no ramp. This makes it very difficult for me to get my sister out for daily round in the evenings or to hosital etc, as we always have to look for someone who can lift the wheel chaiir for just these two steps.
We asked committe members of the society to give us permission to build concrete ramp on our own cost. and that too just six inches wide on two sides (that leaves stairs usable as well) so that wheel chair can be moved. But they have denied and asked us to make a wooden plank or metal ramp temporarily. It would be difficult for my parents to lift that temprary ramp.
Are physically challenged people denied of this simple amenities? How can society members be so insensitive ?? Can i complaint against them ?

Thanks & Regards,
