The Tolaram Bafna Artificial Limb Fitting Centre in Amingaon organised a free artificial limb fitting programme, providing artificial limbs to 30 people in a single day.

The initiative was held to mark the 38th death anniversary of social worker Tolaram Jain Bafna. The beneficiaries received the artificial limbs free of cost, with no fees charged for the service.

The centre has been providing artificial limb services for the past 35 years. During this period, it has fitted artificial limbs for more than 12,000 people from different parts of Assam and across India.

People from neighbouring countries, including Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh, have also benefited from the centre’s services.

The programme brought moments of joy to the beneficiaries, many of whom expressed gratitude after receiving the artificial limbs. Members of the Bafna family also attended the programme.

The Tolaram Bafna Artificial Limb Fitting Centre was established in Amingaon in 1991 in memory of Tolaram Jain Bafna. Since then, it has continued to provide free artificial limb support to people in need.

Kamalpur MLA Diganta Kalita and Hajo-Sualkuchi MLA Prakash Chandra Das also attended the programme and appreciated the Bafna family’s continued humanitarian efforts.
