He also emphasized that such initiatives are crucial in delivering accessible rehabilitation services closer to beneficiaries’ homes.
Additionally, Chief Guest, G.C. Joshi stated “The organization is not only empowering differently-abled individuals but also helping restore their lost confidence, making it a highly inspiring initiative for society.” Chairperson Sidhya Kaushik remarked “Such initiatives are life-changing for economically weaker and accident-affected individuals, with a strong focus on making them self-reliant.”
In a powerful highlight of the event, beneficiaries confidently participated in a parade wearing their newly fitted limbs, symbolising resilience and a new beginning. Medical experts also guided them on the proper usage and maintenance of the prosthetics, while a dedicated 30-member team ensured the seamless execution of the camp.

The initiative aimed not only to restore physical mobility but also to instill confidence and foster self-reliance among beneficiaries.
