Walking on the streets in many Indian cities is often likened to an adventure. People are seen jostling for space in narrow lanes, hawkers shouting, traffic zooming past and of course cows squatting in the middle of the roads.

But there is very little chance of finding a walkway with a ramp for people with disabilities, or markers to help the visually challenged.
