The centre also helps them obtain loans
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.
