Rajasthan-based Narayan Seva Sansthan (NSS) organized a large-scale free distribution camp for artificial limbs, calipers, and assistive devices at Minerva Gardens, Hyderabad. A total of 783 differently-abled individuals from Telangana, Maharashtra, and Andhra Pradesh received 851 custom-fitted devices at no cost, aimed at helping them regain mobility and independence.
Specialist prosthetic and orthotic experts, rehabilitation professionals, and NSS volunteers worked together to provide personalized fittings and post-care guidance. In addition to physical support, NSS also offered counselling and mobility training to enable recipients to adapt to their new devices.
The event was attended by Mrs. Vandana Agarwal, Director of Narayan Seva Sansthan, along with local volunteers, medical professionals, and community leaders.
Highlighting the significance of the initiative, Mrs. Vandana Agarwal said, “At NSS, we believe that true service lies in reaching every corner of society and transforming lives in meaningful ways. Providing 783 individuals with free-of-cost artificial limbs and calipers in a single day is not merely charity—it is a step towards restoring dignity, mobility, and self-reliance. When people regain the ability to move freely, they open doors to education, employment, and active participation in community life, paving the way for a truly accessible India.”
This distribution followed a free Narayan Limb Measurement Camp held on April 6, where more than 1,100 patients attended. Of these, 780 individuals—who had lost their limbs due to road accidents or other mishaps—were selected for casting and measurements of Narayan Limbs.
Narayan Seva Sansthan regularly conducts similar humanitarian initiatives both in India and abroad, including in Kenya, Uganda, Meru, Tanzania, and Nepal. The organisation fits approximately 1,500 people each month with artificial hands and legs, contributing to greater mobility and independence.
At the Hyderabad camp, a 40-member team from NSS worked to ensure each recipient received appropriate support and care. The initiative reflects the Sansthan’s continued efforts to build a more accessible and inclusive society.
