One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

a. I have traveled approx. 35km from CRP-HO to Gulshan Lake Park, Dhaka on own wheelchair on 08th Sept. 2007 to raise fund for my employed organization.

b. I have completed successfully my “Adventure Tour to India” in Nov. 2007 as starting point of the plan of “SAARC Countries Tour on the Own Wheelchair” to prove it that “Disability is Not A limitation to Adventure”.

I am affected by polio at age of 1 year and 6 months. Now I moves by wheelchair, but I can walk without wheelchair for very short distance. I can manage all of my daily activities by my own. I can go upstairs (1st/2nd floor) without any help. I have no any other disease till today except my disability. As per the state law of Bangladesh and other countries, disability is not a disease. I am fully able to stay at general type of accommodations and can use general type of toilets & bathrooms and able to use other home appliances.
