The team were briefed about the treatment and care being provided to the Tetraplegic / Quadriplegic and Paraplegic patients who are former soldiers/ officers of the Indian Armed Forces and were injured in the line of duty or operations or training were explained by the Commandant Brigadier Jyoti Joshi. The Commandant also brought out the acute necessity of CSR support for critical medical equipment and accessories and was extremely thankful that Rotary Club of Pune Central is in the forefront of providing substantive support in terms of donating extremely costly and necessary requirements to this one of its kind hospital of the Indian Army. It was indeed very sad and heartrending to see so many young injured soldiers who were barely in their twenties and who have become tetraplegic / paraplegic and will remain so for the rest of their lives. RCPC is doing yeoman service in providing suitable support to this institution in the best possible manner.
