Helping the handicapped persons to fully
participate in social and national life of the country is one of the important
programmes of the Bharat Vikas Parishad. Beginning with the establishment of
its first Viklang Centre in Delhi in 1990, there are now 13 Viklang
Sahayata Kendras in various states, which provide artificial limbs free of
cost to needy persons through their centres as well as by organising camps.
These centres provide artificial limbs,
calipers, hearing aids, medicines, special shoes, and tri- cycles. In addition,
there are mobile workshops which manufacture artificial limbs and service
Viklang Camps organised by various Branches. Some of the centres have taken up
special programme to help polio victims by organising their operations.
It may mentioned that our centres are
equipped with the most modern equipment to manufacture artificial limbs and other attachments. The trained technicians at these establishments,
through
R&D, have developed improved limbs that are not only very light
but also highly efficient. The limbs manufactured by the centres are
rapid fit, cosmetically and functionally close to human walking, running,
climbing, swimming driving etc. The disabled persons, after the fitment, can
even lift heavy weights and work in workshop and farms.
Bharat Vikas Parishad is the only non-governmental organisation that renders
service to the largest number of handicapped persons in the country year after
year. The Parishad has so far provided artificial limbs, calipers, tricycles,
wheel chairs and hearing aids to about 2.65 lakhs handicapped persons
costing over Rs. 32 crores free of cost.
Apart from providing artificial limbs and
other aids to the disabled persons, Bharat Vikas Parishad is now actively
working for their rehabilitation so as to enable them to live an independent
life. A number of such centres are functioning in various parts of the
country.
It is matter of pride that two of our Viklang centres have won President's
award for service to the handicapped persons.
In 1995, President of India presented the National Award for the
welfare of the handicapped to
Delhi Bharat Vikas Foundation in public recognition of its outstanding
performance for the welfare of handicapped persons.

at Ludhiana for welfare of persons with
disabilities.
