Every year Udaipur’s Narayan Seva Sansthan works for uniting couples who find solace in each other’s exceptions. Yes, we are talking about the differently abled people who are taken care and treated at Narayan Seva Sansthan each day. The society around us disregards people with disabilities, but it is the feeling of love that binds them together. They seek refuge in each other’s disabilities and hence they complete each other.
Narayan Seva does a noble work of tying the hearts of the underprivileged and disabled by marrying them in a Mass Marrying Ceremony specially designed and executed for people at Narayan Seva Sansthan.
Over the years of its establishment, Narayan Seva Sansthan has continuously arranged free of cost Mass Weddings for the differently abled and impoverished couples turning their life into a fairy tale.
This year, Sansthan’s free of cost Mass Marriage Ceremony called ‘Divyang Vivah’ is being conducted on September 8-9th in Udaipur. The Sansthan takes the responsibility to turn the lives of the differently abled and destitute into a delightful experience.
30 mass marriage ceremonies for eligible young differently abled as well as poor boys and girls have been successfully organized over the course of last 18 years. With this initiative, 1500 such couples have been tied in the lifelong knot of marriage. This year as well, they are helping 54 couples to tie the knot in Udaipur.
The Sansthan aims to create an inclusive society, where people with disabilities are accepted into the mainstream economy and social life. Every single person is special and talented and is just looking for a chance to excel and get a family started.
Narayan Seva Sansthan’s initiative and urge to make a difference will slowly and eventually can overcome the way people treat the differently abled and poor.

My Experience over Filing a Civic Complaint on Actionudaipur App
My experience with the ActionUdaipur App went decent. I live in an area which is close to Sisarma rural zone, quite far from the actual city hub. The problem involved was of garbage. There was no garbage dumping area or cleaning in our area. No government sweeper came to clean up the colony. After some time, the garbage accumulated started breeding bacteria and very foul smell aroused from the same.
What I did was simply downloaded the App from the Play Store and took two photographs of the garbage heap. Filled in the required fields, uploaded the pictures and clicked on send.
The required fields are mentioned in the screenshots I took to keep a track of things. Have a look.

On successful registering the complaint
I was waiting to get any call or message from ActionUdaipur but unfortunately didn’t receive anything of that sort. Well, after a week I thought this is not going to work. On the 10th day of filing the complaint, a person turned up in my locality asking for me. He told that he shall take care of the dumping and that he is there only to have a look on the complaint’s status. After 3 days of his visit, a cleaner with a vehicle came and took all the trash from the place and cleaned the area.
I had a mixed feeling about the action by ActionUdaipur. Anyway, they did resolve the problem for the time being. Take a look on the after and before pictures of my area.
