Eight differently abled youths on wheelchairs showcased their talents and performed at a cultural programme held at the Attari-Wagah border today evening.
The programme, part of a national awareness programme -- "Celebrating Abilities", was jointly organised by Ability Unlimited Foundation and Hans Foundation during the Beating Retreat Ceremony at the Wagah border.
"I am immensely happy to perform here. It feels so good when so many people applaud your performance," artist Gulshan Kumar said, who is also a Guinness world record holder, soon after the performance which was witnessed by 400 people.
"We wanted to show unity, integrity and power of differently abled youths of our country," Guruji Syed Sallauddin Pasha, Founder Director and Choreographer of Ability Unlimited Foundation, said.
The team would travel to Ludhiana to participate in another cultural programme tomorrow.
