A disabled person, who left his home a month ago to travel through 25 countries as part of a dedicated campaign against all sorts of handicaps has arrived in Bahrain.
BV Narayana told DT News, after being limp, he thought there was no life ahead for him. He wished no other person in the world to be handicapped.
“I know what it really means to be handicapped. Many handicaps are avoidable and so I am travelling on my customized motorcycle to inform people the six points that can actually save people from being handicapped,” he said.
Narayana believes by taking care of six points – timely administration of polio drops; avoiding drinking or eating while driving; avoiding marriages in the same blood group; not using mobile phones while driving; not allowing children to drive; and abiding by the traffic laws – can greatly bring down the number of handicapped people in the world.
He said he had been on a mission from the God to spread this message and is doing his duty by all means.
Fifty-five-year-old Narayana is from Bengaluru in the southern Indian State of Karnataka.
He had been to the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar before coming to Bahrain last month. Now he is planning to go to Kuwait and from there to Iraq and Turkey.
Later he would travel to Europe, America, Canada, Africa and Pakistan before heading back to India.
Before being handicapped in an accident four years ago, he was a cyclist who travelled to the 59 countries, covering 90,000 kilometres on a bicycle in 1979 with the message of peace and brotherhood.
