Dear friends, Our joy knows no bounds as we share with you the happy news that the Chief Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities, Honourable Mr. P.K. Pincha has, yesterday evening, been given the additional charge as Chairperson of The National Trust for the Welfare of Persons with Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Mental Retardation & Multiple Disabilities. He has assumed this charge with immediate effect.
We are confident that along with AICB, the entire visual impairment sector joins in congratulating our beloved P.K. Pincha on this landmark achievement. It is the first time in the history of this country that so much trust and responsibility has been reposed in a visually impaired person, something which is manifest in the Government of India placing him at the helm of affairs of two important statutory bodies, namely, as the Chief Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities and as the Chairperson of National Trust. Such a distinction achieved by Mr. Pincha is the result of sheer hard work, efficiency, capabilities and commitment to the cause of disability. Truly, this day will go down in the annals of disability history as a day of the pride and celebration of the visually impaired. As we rejoice in Mr. Pincha's achievements, we must take a pledge today to follow his example and try to maintain the high standards of performance which have been set by him, performance standards due to which he has been preferred over scores of sighted persons to hold two important statutory positions. Once again, on behalf of AICB family, congratulations to Mr. Pincha. Sir, you are our cherished pride. Thanks for doing advocacy for the visually impaired both through your work and personal example.
