Brief Summary   Pulmonary tele-rehabilitation is emerging as one of the accessible and affordable means to deliver therapy to chronic respiratory disease patients. The Thar Desert has a total population of 16.6 million people, with a population density of 83 persons per square kilometer. It is sparsely populated with issues of transportation to the tertiary care centers, which further increases the need for tele-rehabilitation.
