He stated that high-quality assistive devices are being provided in collaboration with the Artificial Limbs Manufacturing Corporation of India (ALIMCO). To expand its reach and ensure that no eligible individual is left behind, the Social Welfare Department will launch monthly distribution camps across Delhi, commencing next month.
“Starting next month, these camps will be organized on the 10th of every month in various districts, allowing eligible residents from any part of the city to participate and receive crucial benefits,” Minister Singh announced.
This proactive initiative aims to guarantee that all eligible individuals are included in and benefit from the government’s welfare schemes, ensuring a more inclusive and equitable society.
