We
are presently working with Behala Bodhoyan, a voluntary
organization running a home and rehabilitation center
for mentally retarded children. A 13 seater school bus
was donated to them on 10th January, 2009 for transporting
the mentally retarded ones. General Shankar Roy Chaudhury,
President, Living With Dignity, Kolkata, an affiliated
unit of LWDF, launched the bus in presence of Prabir
Roy and other dignitaries. A home for residential care
of these mentally retarded ones is constructed with
the aid of LWDF. The foundation stone was laid by General
Shankar Roy Chaudhury, President, Living With Dignity,
Kolkata, an affiliated unit of LWDF in presence of Prabir
Roy and other dignitaries. For more details of the project,
