Srinagar: The Indian Army in association with Jaipur based NGO, Bhagwan Mahavir Viklang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS), organized a three-day artificial limb fitment and assistance camp for specially-abled persons between October 10 to October 12 at Durgmulla Garrison.

Around 300 plus people benefitted from the camp.  Beneficiaries were provided with 50 wheelchairs, 110 hearing aids and 40 different types of crutches.  In addition to the equipment, a team of prosthetics technicians was also present to provide their services who assessed the amputees and specially-abled and fitted artificial limbs & Callipers to 90 beneficiaries.

This was the first time that a camp for specially-abled persons was being organized at such a large scale in North Kashmir. The initiative was profoundly appreciated by the local population and is a great step by the army, towards amelioration of the conditions of the Awam (local population).
