at Delhi |

The Vijethua Mahavir in East Uttar Pradesh is
adorned with the highest concentration of
beautifully carved Hindu temples to be found
anywhere in the world.There are alot of
temples in East Uttar Prasesh which is not only an important
pilgrimage for the followers of Hinduism but
equally important are the architecture of the
temples and the elaborate carvings on
them.
The Hindu temples of Vijethua Mahavir were
constructed in the north Indian style of temple
architecture and Vastushastra. As the Lord's Hanuman often
walk barefoot to their temples and Killed toDevil's Kaliname.
This also gave each
temple an identity of its own despite being part
of a cluster. Like the Hindus who prefer the purity
of white, their temples too are usually white, a
combination of plaster and marble. And because
they record the devotion of the Hindus.
The act of ascending a
path to reach a place of pilgrimage is a part of
the Hindu and Jain consciousness, which is why
many of the holiest temples are located along
hills and mountain ranges. The Vijethua Mahavir Madir
is situated at 2 KM. from South of Surapur Chauraha.
Locations from delhi to Vijethua Mahavir Madir by train to
reach either Sutanpur Railway Station or Shahganj railway
staion. From Sutanpur to surapur by bust travel u can reach esily.
Vijethua Mahaviran is famous due to Lord's Hanuman has killed
Kaliname in Vijethua Village when he was going to seach
Sanjivani Buti for Laxman

Diagnostic/Screening
Camps:
The USP of our Mobility Camps
is the pre-identification and selection of
beneficiaries through screening/diagnostic camps
at selected locations in proximity to the main
camps. This ensures that the aids and appliances
are distributed to genuine and needy beneficiaries
only.
In addition to the orthopaedic
screening camps a team of Audiologists are also
sent to selected schools and other locations to
conduct audiology tests on the hearing impaired
children. Based upon the results of these tests
Hearing Aids of the appropriate strength
(Mild-Moderate-Strong) are recommended for
distribution during the main mobility
camps.
Geographical Coverage of the
Mobility Camps:
Gujarat
school children:
For the third
year in succession the Education department of the
Government of Gujarat selected our trust to
organise mobility camps targeting school and out
of school children in all the 25 districts and 4
Corporations of Gujarat. The ongoing camps aim at
the rehabilitation of orthopaedically handicapped
and hearing impaired children.
More than
20,000 OH and HI children have been rehabilitated
in these camps during 2008-2009.
Banaskantha District of
Gujarat:
The trust has organized
several camps all over Gujarat for the
rehabilitation of the physically challenged.
The district collectorate of Banaskantha
was so impressed by our work that during 2008
Independence Day celebrations they prompted us to
make a commitment to free the district from any
physically challenged awaiting rehabilitation by
1st May 2010-the Golden Jubilee of the
state.
The trust is now organising a series
of camps all over the district to keep up to its
commitment.
Mobility camps in the
mountainous regions of the Himalayas:
For the second year in succession
our trust ventured where hardly anyone goes and
organized a hectic three week schedule of Mobility
Camps covering areas like Manali in Himachal
Pradesh, Leh and Kargil including Zanskar and
Changthan valleys in Ladakh and Srinagar/Anantnag
in Kashmir.
A total of 1304 beneficiaries
availed of the free services offered with a Mobile
Van and team of technicians/social workers from
Mumbai.
Mumbai mobility camps:
The trust continued with its
activities to rehabilitate the physically
challenged school children and others in a series
of camps in different areas of Mumbai.
These camps were organized with the
support of the Education Department, Municipal
Corporation and social organizations like the
Lions and Rotary.
A major camp was
organized with support from Belgium which was
attended by well known names from the fashion
industry and the cr�me de la cr�me of Mumbai
society.
Permanent centres for the
handicapped: |
| |
| In addition to the various camps
organized all over the country the trust also has
three permanent centres which offer free
orthopaedic assistive devices to the physically
challenged. These centres are located at: |
| |
- King George V Memorial Hospital in Mumbai
which has been active for the last many
years
- Dharamsala in the land of His Holiness the
Dalai Lama. This centre also acts as the hub for
various activities in the northern part of the
country
- NRI General Hospital at Chinakakani in
Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh which acts as
the base for welfare activities in South India.
|
| |
All the above centres are fully
equipped and manned by trained and experienced
technical personnel.
MOBILE
ORTHOPAEDIC AND AUDIOLOGY HOSPITAL VANS:
The overwhelming response to the mobility
camps and the need to provide such services right
at the doorstep of the disabled prompted Mahadev Madhav
Nidhi Charitable Trust to design and fabricate a
fleet of Mobile Vans to render services to OH and
HI patients.
Three vans are fully equipped
with the necessary machinery, raw materials and
technical manpower and move from village to
village organizing camps for fitting of Jaipur
foot artificial limb to amputees and Callipers to
polio affected children.
Another custom
made van has four sound proof cabins to conduct
audiology tests and distribute appropriate hearing
aids to the hearing impaired.
This has
given a quantum jump in the number of
beneficiaries that could be rehabilitated right
down to the village level where no such activity
had ever been carried out before. |
