We aim to reach out to more individuals with disabilities and shed positivity and light on them. We wish everyone who participated in the award ceremony a bright and prospering future ahead and wish them best on their future endeavours\u201d.<\/p>\n Said Smt. Jayshree Raveendran, Founder & Hon. Executive Director<\/strong>, Ability Foundation, On this occasion of the 20th year of our Cavinkare Ability Awards, I can say with humility & pride, that these awards have been important landmarks & turning points. I do believe that the disability sector and more importantly, persons with disabilities in our country, re on the verge of being discovered, recognized & understood for their true potentials. And I’m thrilled that these awards, as well as every single activity of Ability Foundation, have been important stepping stones in this direction. To spotlight and showcase such amazing and brilliant achievers with disabilities from across the country before all, has been extremely challenging & exhilarating for us. Every mindset changed, every stereotypical perception dispelled and every single person won over, have played crucial roles towards this progress. We still have miles to go towards equality & recognition… but the day is not far off when we can look back at the total discrimination that prevailed early on and march forward with heads held high.<\/p>\n This one-of-its kind national level award comprises two categories: the CavinKare Ability Award for Eminence & the CavinKare Ability Mastery Awards. <\/strong>The nominations received from across the country were short-listed based on the degree of difficulty, triumph over adversity and uniqueness of the task accomplished.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Telecasted on CNN New18 TV on Saturday 26 March 2022 Jury: Shankar Mahadevan, Singer & Composer Lt.
