Families Protest Delayed Admissions to Disability Group Home
Imagine a special home for people with disabilities, like a safe place to live and get help.
This home is ready, but the government hasn't let anyone move in yet.
Some families are worried because their loved ones need this home.
To show how important it is, people held a quiet protest with candles.
They want the government to let people into the home right away so they can get the care they need.
They also remembered a person who was a single parent and had an adult son with autism.
Over 60 people participated in a silent protest and candlelight march.
The protest occurred at Sector 17 Plaza on Sunday evening.
The primary demand was the immediate start of admissions to the Group Home.
The Group Home for persons with disabilities has been ready since July 2024.
The protest also mourned the death of Aruna Rathore, a single mother of an adult son with autism.
