Specially challenged decry official apathy

Tandur: A sadarem camp was organised to identify and certify the specially challenged, here at district hospital on Friday. Officials announced that the applicants should report by 9:30 am. But no official turned up till 11:30 am.

The 200 applicants from the division had to wait without knowing the arrival of the officials. The confused further increased when the officials declared that they would test only 30 people.

The challenged people staged a protest against the attitude of the officials. They were pacified by saying that the tests for remaining people will be held later and the date will be announced in newspaper.
