As part of its ongoing humanitarian assistance to the people of Afghanistan, India successfully organized a five-day Jaipur Foot camp in Kabul, fitting around 75 prosthetic limbs for disabled individuals, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) announced on Sunday.
The camp was conducted by the Bhagwan Mahaveer Viklang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS), a globally recognized Indian charitable organization known for its Jaipur Foot prosthetics and rehabilitation services for persons with disabilities. MEA Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal shared the update on social media, highlighting the enthusiastic response from the Afghan beneficiaries.
BMVSS has a long history of providing low-cost, high-quality prosthetic limbs and mobility aids worldwide, having conducted over 111 camps across 44 countries and assisted more than two million people. The Jaipur Foot, made from polymer materials and designed for durability and comfort, offers amputees improved mobility and quality of life.
This initiative in Kabul is part of India’s broader humanitarian outreach program, “India for Humanity,” which supports vulnerable populations in conflict-affected regions through medical aid, rehabilitation, and capacity-building efforts.
The successful Jaipur Foot camp in Kabul not only restored mobility to many Afghans but also reinforced India’s commitment to humanitarian diplomacy and regional goodwill through practical assistance.
