Varam 2021 Award presented to K.V. Rabia
Minister for Higher Education and Social Justice R. Bindu has said that efforts will be made to convert Kerala into a differently abled-friendly State.
“The government is duty-bound to ensure the welfare and rehabilitation of the differently abled,” she said while inaugurating a gathering of the differently abled at Thunchath Ezhuthachan Malayalam University at Tirur on Saturday.
The eighth edition of the gathering was titled ‘Varam’. The Minister presented the Varam 2021 Award to K.V. Rabia, a differently abled who had circumvented her disabilities to become an ambassador of letters during the literacy movement in the State. Mr. Bindu said Ms. Rabia’s services to woman empowerment in the last three decades were commendable.
