The campaign will conclude on International Day for Persons with Disability 2018.
Chairman of Dr Reddy’s Foundation Satish Reddy said, “In this day and age, specially-abled people are proving to be a better talent and setting new standards in all aspects of life. Dr Reddy’s Foundation believes that there should be no barrier to sharing talent due to a disability. This campaign will aim to strengthen an inclusive and a barrier-free work environment for the specially-abled people in our society.
