Delhi’s Social Welfare Minister Ravinder Indraj Singh on Thursday inspected the manufacturing unit of the Artificial Limbs Manufacturing Corporation of India (ALIMCO) at Kanpur to ensure the provision of modern and improved assistive devices for persons with disabilities (Divyangjans) in the Capital.
Highlighting the government’s commitment to the empowerment of Divyangjans, Singh said, the government is actively contributing to the success of the Accessible India Campaign (Sugamya Bharat Abhiyan). “These modern, user-friendly devices will benefit Divyangjans across Delhi and help improve their quality of life,” he said.
