Even in adversity, you have not lost courage and on the strength of your courage, you have continued studies along with the daily life tasks like normal girls. I admire your courage.
    While talking about the distance of the school from the village and the family situation, he said that very affectionately asked him that do you have any desire and any demand? Geeta smiled very innocently and told Chief Minister Mr. Baghel in Chhattisgarhi ‘Mor Gaon Abe’. While accepting this invitation of Geeta with a laugh, the Chief Minister said that Corona will come after the crisis. The Chief Minister told Geeta that if there is any need, she should inform the collector or him immediately. The government will provide all possible help. On this occasion, Collector Shri Nilesh Kumar Mahadev Kshirsagar informed that the measurement of feet of Divyang Geeta has been taken. In eight to ten days, the artificial claw of both the feet will come ready. Which will be planted at the feet of Geeta. Reena Babasaheb Kangale, Secretary, Social Welfare Department, who was present in the virtual program, told that Geeta was given a hand-powered tricycle by the department earlier, Which he gave to the needy other handicapped person. As per Geeta’s wish, she has been given a battery operated three wheel motorized cycle costing Rs 42 thousand today. A team of experts posted at Physical Referral Rehabilitation Center, Mana Camp, Raipur, visited the house of Kumari Geeta and measured her claws. Artificial claws are being prepared for Geeta, which cost one and a half lakh rupees. Due to which she will be able to do all kinds of work efficiently and stand on her feet.
