Addressing the gathering, Ramila Ben T. Patel described service to persons with disabilities as the highest form of humanity. She praised Narayan Seva Sansthan for its long-standing commitment to the rehabilitation and empowerment of differently abled individuals and called for continued public support for such humanitarian initiatives.
