PMC to Install Ramps in Civic Buildings for Accessibility
The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) is making it easier for people with disabilities to access public buildings.
The commissioner noticed that auditoriums didn't have ramps, making it difficult for people with disabilities to get on stage.
He's ordered that all PMC-owned buildings get ramps within six months.
This announcement was made during an event where the Airports Authority of India (AAI) and ALIMCO gave out helpful devices to over a thousand people with disabilities.
The commissioner wants both government and private places to be friendly to people with disabilities.

Ramps must be installed within six months.
