The Bengaluru artificial limb camp will be held on Sunday 15 November 2026 at Maharaja Agrasen Bhavan in Jayanagar, offering free artificial limbs, calipers, crutches and other assistive devices. Karnataka Marwari Samaj is organising it with Bhagwan Mahaveer Vikalang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS), known as Jaipur Foot, and Business News Week describes it as the 20th year of the camp.
When and where is the Bengaluru artificial limb camp?
The camp is scheduled for Sunday 15 November 2026 at Maharaja Agrasen Bhavan, near Ashoka Pillar, Jayanagar, Bengaluru. It starts at 8:00 AM. The report gives two different closing times, 2:00 PM and 3:00 PM, so anyone planning to attend should confirm the end time with the organisers.
Who is organising the camp?
Karnataka Marwari Samaj (KMS) is hosting the event in association with BMVSS, the Jaipur-based organisation behind the Jaipur Foot. The report quotes KMS President Praveen Tulsiyan and Project Director Bimal Kumar Saraogi as spokespeople. Assessments are carried out by prosthetic and orthotic experts, according to the report.
What devices are offered and what should attendees bring?
The camp offers free fitting of artificial limbs, calipers, crutches and other assistive devices. Attendees are asked to bring an Aadhaar card, a photograph of the affected legs or hands, and a phone number. The organisers’ contact number is given in the original report, which readers should check directly before travelling.
Registration documents named in the report
The documents above are those listed by Business News Week. Requirements can change, so confirm them with the organisers.
What should families ask before accepting a device?
A camp fitting is the start of a process. People attending, and those supporting them, may wish to ask who can adjust or repair the device afterwards, how to arrange a review as the residual limb changes, and whether training in using the device is offered. These are general good-practice questions rather than claims about this camp: the report does not describe follow-up arrangements.
Other Indian camps have been covered recently, including the Mangaluru artificial limb camp in Karnataka and the Narayan Seva assessment and measurement camp in Ahmedabad. For the wider debate, see how free camps fit the wider market.
Bharat CPO Perspective
A camp reaching its 20th year suggests continuing demand for low-cost limbs in and around Bengaluru. For certified prosthetists and orthotists in Karnataka, such events are a chance to support assessment quality, share fitting standards and offer follow-up for people who would otherwise have no local review point. Practitioners may also see camps as a referral source for patients needing components or care beyond what a one-day event can provide. These details come from a single news report; Bharat CPO has not independently verified the date, the 20th-year claim or the services offered, and will update this article if the organisers provide more information.
