VUDA conducts screening camp

The Visakhapatnam Urban Development Authority in association with the Creative Comedy Club had conducted a camp and identified 25 differently-abled persons for free distribution of artificial limbs, calipers and surgical shoes.

These limbs would help the differently abled to lead a normal life.

This aid was being extended by Motukuri Janardhana Rao in memory of his late father Vijaya Kumar.

A programme was arranged at the Vinoda Vallari on September 21 where the Vice-Chairman of VUDA, V. Nagendra Vishnu will give away artificial limbs to some of the beneficiaries.
