The Samarapan Award 2026 is a prestigious initiative dedicated to honoring senior changemakers (60 years and above) who have devoted their lives to improving the lives of persons with disabilities. Instituted in memory of the Late Shri Kailashchandra Sharma, the award celebrates lifelong dedication, compassion, and exceptional service in building an inclusive and empowered society. We invite nominations for individuals whose contributions in education, rehabilitation, healthcare, accessibility, advocacy, employment, or community development have created a lasting impact in the disability sector. Through the Samarapan Award, we aim to recognize these inspiring individuals and express our gratitude for their unwavering commitment to the cause of disability inclusion.
