Punctuate the following passage:

a new age cycle rickshaw that is light on both the pockets and the calf muscles of rickshaw pullers mobile games designed to battle life threatening diseases like hiv/aids and tb and a low cost computer that enables visually challenged students to read the textbooks these are all new inventions these are not innovations designed by phunjshuk wanngduaka ranchhoddas shamaldas of chanchad of 3 idiots fame much before aamir khan's rancho made innovation a household word these simple but powerful ideas were being quietly conceptualised and put to practice by enterprising Indians in various corners of the country.

ANSWER:

The punctuated message is given below:

A new age cycle rickshaw that is light on both - the pockets and the calf muscles of rickshaw-pullers, mobile games designed to battle life - threatening diseases like HIV/AIDS and TB and a low cost computer that enables visually - challenged students to read the textbooks. These are all new inventions.

These are not innovations designed by Phunjshuk Wanngdu or Ranchhoddas Shamaldas Chanchad of 3 Idiots fame. Much before Aamir Khan’s Rancho made innovation a household word, these simple but powerful ideas were being quietly conceptualised and put to practice by enterprising Indians in various corners of the country.

Hope it helps you!!
