The Disabled Development Association Manipur (DDAM) and Wheelchair Basketball Association Manipur (WBAM) condoled the demise of Khwairakpam Ibomcha Singh of Awang Sekmai Mayai Leikai, former member of DDAM and former player of first National team of WBAM.
His major contributions towards the welfare of the differently abled persons of the State were remembered.
He also pioneered the movement demanding for the proper enactment of Rights of Persons with Disabilities (RPWD) Act 2016 and for the establishment of a separate department of the differently abled persons in the State, said a joint statement of DDAM and WBAM.
He also motivated the differently abled persons to lead a normal life and spread awareness for the need of active participation in various activities instead of isolating oneself.
The members of DDAM and WBAM prayed that the departed soul may rest in peace and also shared the pain and grief of the bereaved family.
