Abstract :
ldquoObstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off the goal.rdquo This quote was rendered by a famous philosopher Hannah Moore in order to motivate the disabled. Of the disabled people those who are physically challenged, the blind, old people and those suffering from diseases such as osteoporosis and rheumatics face problems in their routine life mainly because of LOCOMOTION. With regard to hospitals, a lot of valuable human lives can be saved if we could still improve the medical attention rendered to the patients.
