Narayan Seva Sansthan Strengthens National Outreach Through Free Prosthetic Limb and Caliper Fitment Camps Across Six Cities, Reaches Over 3,300 Persons with Disabilities
Reaffirming its commitment to accessible rehabilitation and disability inclusion, Narayan Seva Sansthan successfully concluded a nationwide series of free Narayan Limb and Caliper Fitment Camps across Bengaluru, Delhi, Pune, Coimbatore, Mumbai and Hyderabad. The multi-city initiative benefited approximately 3,300 persons with disabilities, providing them with advanced prosthetic care and comprehensive rehabilitation support.
As part of the initiative, more than 1,570 artificial limbs and calipers were fitted and distributed across the camps. In addition, nearly 700 beneficiaries were measured for customised Narayan Modular Artificial Limbs, ensuring that they continue to receive personalised mobility solutions beyond the camp period.
Hyderabad recorded the highest volume of assistive-device distribution, where 815 Narayan Modular Artificial Limbs and calipers were fitted for 745 beneficiaries. Bengaluru followed with 602 assistive devices fitted for 558 beneficiaries. In Delhi, 162 customised artificial limbs and calipers were fitted for 140 beneficiaries, while Mumbai saw 154 prosthetic limbs fitted for 104 beneficiaries, helping them move towards greater independence with renewed confidence.
To date, Narayan Seva Sansthan has provided free artificial limbs to more than 40,403 persons with disabilities and over 4.01 lakh calipers, while more than 454,585 people have received free medical treatment. Through its sustained rehabilitation and healthcare initiatives, the organisation has helped thousands of persons with disabilities move towards greater self-reliance, dignity and social inclusion.
Speaking about the nationwide initiative, Prashant Agarwal, President, Narayan Seva Sansthan, said, “Every artificial limb represents much more than restored mobility; it restores dignity, confidence, livelihood and hope. Our vision is to ensure that no person with disability is denied the opportunity to live independently because of limited access to rehabilitation. These camps bring advanced prosthetic care directly to communities and help thousands take their first steps towards a more empowered future.”
Palak Agarwal, Director, Narayan Seva Sansthan, said, “Rehabilitation is not just about fitting an artificial limb; it is about rebuilding lives. By combining advanced technology with compassionate care and community support, we are creating opportunities for persons with disabilities to participate more fully in education, employment and society. We are also deeply grateful to our CSR partners for their valuable support and trust in our work. Their contribution has strengthened our ability to take these services to more persons with disabilities and advance our commitment towards building a more inclusive society.”
Powered by advanced Japanese and German prosthetic technology, including precision-engineered 3D-printed modular artificial limbs, the camps combined innovation with compassionate care. Beneficiaries also received physiotherapy, gait training, counselling, assistive-device orientation and post-fitment support, helping them achieve better mobility and greater long-term independence.
With every camp, Narayan Seva Sansthan continues to bridge the accessibility gap for persons with disabilities. Its efforts go beyond restoring mobility, focusing equally on rebuilding confidence, dignity and the ability to lead an independent and productive life.
