Mumbai: The Sri Shanmukhananda Fine Arts and Sangeetha Sabha felicitated 25 wounded warriors on the 77th Republic Day at the Sabha auditorium, King’s Circle.
Cash and Mementoes Presented
Lt. General D. S. Kushwah, General Officer Commanding (Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Goa), presented each soldier with a cheque of Rs one lakh, a shawl, and mementoes.
Sabha President Dr. V. Shankar noted that the institution honours wounded jawans and martyrs' families annually to foster a bond between civil society and the armed forces. While Republic Day is dedicated to "Wounded Warriors," Independence Day (August 15) is reserved for honouring the families of martyrs.
Philanthropic Initiatives
The programme commenced with a Vedic invocation and the National Anthem, performed by 77 students of the Sabha’s Sangeetha Vidyalaya. Dr. Shankar further highlighted the Sabha's philanthropic efforts, including a Rs 1 crore finishing school for Agniveer aspirants in Apsinge, Satara, and donations of Rs 10 lakh each to the Paraplegic Rehabilitation Centre in Khadki and the Artificial Limb Centre in Pune.
