Mumbai, 03rd November 2023: MLA Aslam Shaikh is set to launch a campaign called “Freedom from Darkness” on his birthday on November 5th, 2023. The campaign aims to provide free cataract operations to over 200 senior citizens in his constituency.
MLA Aslam Shaikh, known for his grand birthday celebrations in the past, has chosen to mark the occasion this year by serving the people. Instead of traditional celebrations, he will be participating in initiatives such as distributing sewing machines to empower women, organizing free health check-up camps, cataract operations, blood donation drives, and the distribution of free wheelchairs.
This decision comes in the wake of the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict, political unrest, and social tensions in the state. MLA Shaikh feels that it is important to focus on these critical issues rather than celebrating his birthday.
His supporters and constituents have welcomed this decision, praising him for his commitment to public service. They have also pledged to support his social initiatives.
The “Freedom from Darkness” campaign is a testament to MLA Shaikh’s commitment to helping those in need. It will provide much-needed relief to senior citizens who are suffering from cataracts. The campaign will also help to raise awareness about the importance of eye care.
Here are some of the benefits of the “Freedom from Darkness” campaign:
Improved vision for senior citizens: Cataracts can lead to blindness, but they can be treated with surgery. The “Freedom from Darkness” campaign will provide free cataract operations to senior citizens, helping them to regain their vision and improve their quality of life.
Reduced risk of falls and injuries: Cataracts can make it difficult to see, which can increase the risk of falls and injuries. The “Free from Darkness” campaign will help to reduce this risk by providing free cataract operations to senior citizens.
Increased independence and self-reliance: Cataracts can make it difficult to perform everyday tasks, such as reading, driving, and cooking. The “Freedom from Darkness” campaign will help to increase the independence and self-reliance of senior citizens by providing them with the ability to see clearly again.
The “Freedom from Darkness” campaign is a valuable initiative that will make a real difference in the lives of senior citizens. MLA Shaikh and his team deserve to be commended for their commitment to helping those in need.
The campaign will be launched in collaboration with Raksha Hospital and Dr. Kaabra. It will also feature a free medical camp organized by Zeal Educational and Welfare Trust under the guidance of Faiyaz Sir.Aslam Qureshi, Asif Noor Mohd Shaikh (A Net) and others.
Here are some of the specific initiatives that MLA Shaikh will be participating in:
Distribution of sewing machines to empower women: This initiative will enable women to generate sustainable income and improve their quality of life.
Free health check-up camps: These camps will provide free medical care to people from all walks of life.
Cataract operations: This initiative will help restore vision in people who are suffering from cataracts.
Blood donation drives: These drives will help to ensure a steady supply of blood for hospitals and patients in need.
Distribution of free wheelchairs: This initiative will help to improve the mobility of people with disabilities.
MLA Shaikh’s decision to celebrate his birthday by serving the people is a commendable one. It is a reminder that even in the midst of challenges, there is always hope and an opportunity to make a difference.
