A special health check-up camp for children with disabilities (Divyang children) was organized by the Bihar Education Project, East Champaran, on Wednesday at the BRC auditorium in Sugauli block headquarters. The primary aim of the camp was to screen Divyang children, issue disability certificates, and identify those in need of assistive devices.

During the camp, a total of 140 children underwent medical examinations. A team of specialist doctors, including orthopedist Dr. Upendra Kumar, ophthalmologist Dr. Faizul Haque, audiologist Dr. Tripti, and physician Dr. Shubham Kumar, conducted the screenings. Following the examinations, disability certificates were issued to 88 children, which will enable them to access various government schemes and benefits. Additionally, 44 children were identified for assistive devices such as wheelchairs and hearing aids. Nine children requiring more specialized treatment were referred to the Sadar Hospital in Motihari.

Alok Kumar Mishra, Ashish Gupta, and Narendra Kumar from the Bihar Education Project also contributed significantly to the camp and identified three Divyang children for assistive devices. Block Education Officer Ranjit Kumar informed parents about the benefits of disability certificates and assured them of full cooperation. He urged parents to contact him for any issues or assistance. Refreshments were also arranged for the children and their guardians. Pramod Kumar Vidyarthi, Prabhat Kumar, and Santosh Kumar played a crucial role in the successful organization of the camp.
