Narayan Seva Sansthan Hosts First Modular Artificial Limb Camp in Coimbatore

Narayan Seva Sansthan organizes its first free artificial limb camp on April 28 at Maheshwari Bhavan, Coimbatore, offering high-quality prosthetics to the differently-abled, complete with free accommodation and meals.


Coimbatore: Narayan Seva Sansthan, the nationally acclaimed NGO from Udaipur, Rajasthan, is set to conduct its inaugural mega free artificial limb camp in Coimbatore, marking its first such event in Tamil Nadu. Scheduled for April 28 at Maheshwari Bhavan, KNJ Pudur Pirivu, this initiative aims to support the differently-abled by providing high-quality, durable prosthetics.



Rajat Gaur, the Maha Gangotri Head of Sansthan, spoke about the organization's dedication to helping those physically challenged due to accidents or illnesses. This event, inspired by the vision of Padma Shri awardee Kailash Manav, marks the 1021st camp under the 'Well Near the Thirsty' initiative. The camp will run from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

During a press conference organized by the Rajasthan Association, it was highlighted that the camp would feature a team of specialized orthotists and prosthetic doctors. They will take detailed measurements for custom-made limbs in a carefully organized casting session. The recipients are then scheduled to receive their fitted artificial limbs at a follow-up distribution camp approximately two months later.

Over 800 registrations have been noted, with expectations for more than a thousand participants. Santosh Mundada, the Secretary of the Maheshwari Community, stated that the Sansthan would provide free accommodation and meals to the attendees. The camp has received substantial support from multiple local communities and over twenty societies and associations, contributing to its anticipated success.

Bhagwan Prasad Gaur, the Media and Public Relations Officer of the Sansthan, urged all eligible differently-abled individuals to attend the camp to maximize the benefits offered. He reminded participants to bring their Aadhaar card, disability certificate, and two photographs depicting their disability.

The camp emphasizes the Narayan Seva Sansthan's ethos since its inception in 1985: "serving man is serving Narayan." Led by Sansthan President Prashant Agarwal, the organization continues to empower millions of differently-abled individuals through a broad range of medical, educational, and skill development initiatives, fully integrating them into mainstream society. Recently, Agarwal was honored with the National Award for his contributions, reflecting the significant impact of the Sansthan's work.
