Bharatiya cha parishad, Prime Minister of India

In the 95th edition of his monthly radio programme 'Mann Ki Baat' on Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi talked about "Muscular Dystrophy" and appreciated the efforts of a health centre in Himachal Pradesh's solan in spreading awareness about it.The Prime Minister said that Muscular Dystrophy is a genetic disease that can occur at any age, in which the muscles of the body begin to weaken."The world of medical science has made a lot of progress with the help of research and innovation as well as state-of-the-art technology and equipment, but some diseases, even today, remain a big challenge for us. One such disease is - Muscular Dystrophy! It is mainly a genetic disease that can occur at any age, in which the muscles of the body begin to weaken. It becomes difficult for the patient to do even his small tasks of daily life. The treatment and care of such patients require a great sense of service," he said.Appreciating the efforts of Manav Mandir Hospital, PM Modi said it is a wonderful example of human service true to its name."We have such a centre at Solan in Himachal Pradesh, which has become a new ray of hope for the patients of Muscular Dystrophy. The name of this centre is 'Manav Mandir'; it is being run by the Indian Association of Muscular Dystrophy. Manav Mandir is a wonderful example of human service true to its name. OPD and admission services for the patients started here three-four years ago. Manav Mandir also has a facility of beds for about 50 patients. Along with Physiotherapy, Electrotherapy, and Hydrotherapy, are also treated here with the help of Yoga-Pranayama," said the PM.He said that through all kinds of hi-tech facilities, this centre also tries to bring a positive change in the lives of the patients."A challenge associated with Muscular Dystrophy is also a lack of awareness about it. That's why, this centre organizes awareness camps for patients not only in Himachal Pradesh but across the country. The most encouraging thing is that the management of this organization is mainly done by people suffering from this disease, like a social worker, Urmila Baldi ji, President of the Indian Association of Muscular Dystrophy Sister Sanjana Goyal ji, and other members of this association. Shriman Vipul Goyal ji, who played an important role in the formation, is playing a very important role for this institution" he said.The Prime Minister said that efforts are also on to develop Manav Mandir as a hospital and research centre."With this, patients will be able to get better treatment here. I heartily appreciate all the people trying in this direction, as well as wish the best for the recovery of all the people suffering from Muscular Dystrophy," he added.While concluding his radio programme, PM Modi said the creative and social endeavours of the countrymen that were discussed in today's 'Mann Ki Baat' are examples of the country's energy and enthusiasm.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
