MUKTI has adopted the simple and easy way of conducting camps by which the mobility fixtures are fitted in rural areas free of cost.

About 350 such camps from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, Africa, Asia and South America are so far conducted for fitting the mobilty structures and also training in making and fabricating artificial limbs. This is done mostly with the help of the local NGOs. So far, 102 technicians were trained by Mukti.

Indian Parliament passed a law in 1995 assuring barrier free environment, educational integration, equal employment opportunities and other rights to Physically Challenged persons. Unfortunately none of the provisions of this law were seriously considered by the Central and State Governments till today. Mukti takes up this cause very seriously by arranging face to face programmes, participated by the Physically Challenged persons and the agencies empowered to implement the People with Disabilities Act. Feed back and grievances from the community were sent to the concerned department and impress upon them to take immediate remedial measures.

In 1998, when a group of spastic children confined to wheel-chairs wanted to visit the Government Museum, they were dismayed to find that ramp facilities were not available there. Mukti and its associate organization, Access Council for the Rights of the Disabled, took upon themselves the task of persuading the museum authorities to arrange a make shift ramp for these spastic children. This was Mukti’s first victory in providing barrier free environment to persons confined to wheel chairs.

In order to motivate the physically challenged persons achieve their fullest potential, every year Mukti recognizes the achievement of the Outstanding physically challenged persons with Lalchand Milapchand Dadha Award.

• Acceding the request received from two NGOs serving the mentally challenged persons Mukti, started a training programme in the following areas:
• screen printing
• making leather belts needed for artificial limbs/braces
• artificial foot production
• produce photo albums marketed by Mukti to various photo studios in Chennai.

26 affiliates throughout the world, provided with technology update and supply of material at cost price
