Sewajyoti runs District Handicapped Rehabilitation Centre at Nawalgarh where number of relief and rehabilitation activities are conducted for the disabled. There is an interesting story behind establishment of this centre. In 2004, Sewajyoti had organized a large handicapped camp in Jhunjhunu district which was the only camp of this kind in the area. Thousands of disabled people attended the camp where Sewajyoti provided different kinds of services to the needy, including medical consultation, medicines and equipment. The camp was a huge success and received accolades in the media as well as the administration. Following this, central government invited Sewajyoti to assist in running its schemes for the disabled in the area.
Subsequently, Sewajyoti established District Handicapped Rehabilitation Centre at Nawalgarh (Jhunjhunu) on 1st October, 2005. This project enjoys support from Social Justice and Empowerment Ministry, Government of India and is run under the guidance of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay Vikalang Jan Sansthan, New Delhi.
