Eyeway Rubaru with Mubarak

From running a small shop to raising voices for disability rights, Mubarak’s journey is one of dignity, leadership, and self-belief.

In this episode of Eyeway Rubaru, we speak to Mubarak, a blind entrepreneur, community leader, and a member of the CBR Forum Programme run by PGSS (Purvanchal Gramin Seva Samiti).

Mubarak shares how his association with PGSS helped him understand disability rights, build confidence, and emerge as the leader of a Divyang People Organisation (DPO). He talks about starting and managing his own shop, using accessible mobile technology and digital payments, and supporting others in accessing disability pensions, certificates, and government entitlements.

This conversation highlights:

• The role of PGSS’s CBR Forum Programme in empowering persons with disabilities
  

• Running a business independently with vision impairment
  

• Using accessible technology for financial independence
  

• Community leadership and grassroots advocacy
  

• Why persons with disabilities are contributors, not burdens
  

A powerful story of how awareness, opportunity, and collective support can transform lives.
