A Jaipur-based charity organisation has organised a month-long camp at a hospital in Srinagar to distribute mobility aids to 1,300 physically challenged persons.
Bhagwan Mahaveer Viklang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS), famous for its Jaipur Foot, has organised the camp at Sultan-Ul- Arifeen Artificial Limb Caliper Fitment Centre in Srinagar from August 28, a release from the organisation said here today.
BMVSS founder and chief patron D R Mehta said the organisation has got funds for the camp from Prime Minister's National Relief Fund after recommendations from the Union Home Ministry and also the Jammu and Kashmir government.
Mehta, while thanking to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for release of the fund, said large number of differently-abled people are coming to the camp inspite of heavy rains and floods there.
