NC seeks comprehensive package for physically challenged | | | Early Times Report Jammu, July 13: National Conference, Provincial President Devender Singh Rana on Wednesday sought a comprehensive package for physically challenged persons in Jammu and Kashmir, saying that perpetual disturbances and intermittent border skirmishes generally lead to physical disabilities across the state. "The society and the government have a bounden duty and responsibility to empower these segments by whatever way they can lead a dignified life and contribute towards progress and prosperity of the state", Rana said after distributing seven scooties to seven physically challenged persons of the Nagrota Assembly Constituency this afternoon. He said that watching cheer on the faces of physically challenged is overwhelming for him and he will not shirk his responsibility towards their welfare and empowerment. He recalled his most satisfying moments nearly two months ago, when he saw the first batch of beneficiaries driving on road after the conclusion of function and treading towards destination for progress and dignity. "Every single effort to empower this segment of society is a big leap towards enlisting their involvement in socio economic transformation as mobility is imperative for pursuing careers", he said. Rana was accompanied by Aijaz Jan, Provincial President Youth National Conference, Satwant Kour Dogra, Provincial President Women Wing and Ch. Haroon. He thanked the Social Welfare Department for promptly arranging the scooties. |
