UNBELIEVABLE: 139 persons with disabilities get placed via tiruvallur s counselling centre - Caught on Camera

Tamilarasan Murugesan, who has been unemployed for the past five years, is happy now.

Thanks to the job that he has now in quality control in a private company at Papparambakkam in Tiruvallur. He is one of the 139 persons with disabilities (PwDs), who have been placed in jobs by Tiruvallur district’s counselling centre.

“I had a job till mid-2016. After that the project got over and despite several tries, I did not get a job due to my disability. It is a birth defect and I walk with a limp. This job also pays better and it is closer to my home. I travel only about 20 minutes to work. Earlier, I had to travel to the city, change two trains and an auto for work. I am comfortable with this job and my office treats me well,” he said.
