"The purpose of this book is to give rise to a critical assessment through the presentation of holistic approach to different aspects of the disability in the society. Efforts have been made to facilitate free discussions and observations, being expressed by various social scientists only in a vernacular language. The present book is organized in twenty one chapters and each chapter is devoted to one theme and presents an ensemble of contributions from which the readers will be able to observe the diversity ranging from personal testimony to communications of a scientific character. Each chapter highlights the problems being faced due to the disability. Lastly, it has been noted that over the past several decades the movement for disability rights has made commendable strides in recognizing the human rights and freedom of expression by the people with disabilities. Various articles present in this book have shown tremendous transformation of formally accepted disabilities from Medical Model to Socially accepted Model. The medical model of disability was a physical defect cured through the treatments whereas the social model focused on modifying the constraints through  viii  participation of people with disabilities in the society. Women with disabilities in general faced deplorable conditions all over the world unless they proved their worth in the society."
