Today, July 7, 2024, the APAL’s state Committee in Jharkhand had the privilege of meeting Shri Dhulu Mahato, the Lok Sabha Member of Parliament representing Dhanbad. During a courteous discussion, we apprised him of the significant issues faced by the 25 leprosy colonies within the Dhanbad Lok Sabha constituency. These communities are encountering various challenges, and it was imperative to bring their predicament to the attention of our esteemed MP.

We respectfully requested Shri Mahato to visit these leprosy colonies to gain a firsthand understanding of their living conditions and the specific problems they encounter. His presence and support would be invaluable in addressing the critical needs of these marginalized communities. We are pleased to share that Shri Dhulu Mahato has assured his commitment to the cause. He affirmed that he would indeed work diligently for the welfare of the residents of these colonies, providing them with the necessary support and attention they deserve.
