I am an international paragraph swimmer, Divyang, and also a responsible citizen of this country.
Regarding Rahul’s statement, Jyotiraditya Scindia also said that it is a gross insult to the disabled.
Lohia has been awarded the Padma Shri.
This word ‘lame’ is also legally objectionable Lohia wrote- Recently in Bhopal, Rahul Gandhi used the word ‘Langa’, which is extremely insensitive. Describing it against the Divyang Public Rights Act 2016, he said that this word is also legally objectionable and now it is not used in government language.
Referring to the words Divyang given by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Lohia said, “This word reflects our abilities and not our challenges.”
Take care of the feelings of the disabled Lohia urged Rahul Gandhi to publicly clarify this subject and take care of the sentiments of the disabled in the future. He also wrote- We Divyang people are also citizens of this country, we are also self-respect and we are also represented. We expect equal rights and respect, not only sympathy.
Scindia said-Unabbilia is an insult to the disabled Jyotiraditya Scindia also raised strong objections to Rahul Gandhi’s statement of ‘lame horse’. He said that this statement is not only indecent, but a gross insult to the disabled.
Scindia said- I want to explain to all those who are using such abusive words. The Prime Minister has changed the word ‘disabled’ to ‘Divyangjan’, which means those who have a special blessing of God. We should bow to such people, respect them.
Know what Rahul Gandhi said in Bhopal…
Rahul said- Become a horse with a race, not a procession This was stated by Rahul Gandhi at a conference of District and Block Congress leaders in Bhopal on 3 June. Rahul had said- Now the race horses and the horses of the procession will have to be separated.
Kamal Nath told me that the Congress sometimes sends the race horse to the procession and sometimes puts the procession of the procession in the race line. However, there is also a third category. That is- lame horse. We have to sort which lame, which is the race and which is the horse of the procession?
The procession has to be sent to the procession. The race person has to retire in the race and the lame. He also has to say that brother, take this, eat a little grass, drink water, relax, do not tighten the rest, do not disturb the rest of the horses, otherwise you will have to take action.
