Noted social worker and recipient of Ramon Magsaysay Award Sandeep Pandey on Friday said mentally ill destitute persons roaming on the roads was a serious issue and people should try to reach out to them with whatever help they could offer.
Speaking after flagging off an ambulance acquired by a local NGO Mano Bandhu Foundation, to be used for rescue and rehabilitation of the mentally challenged and homeless persons in the State, Mr. Pandey said the organisation was launched to address “this neglected issue effectively”.
