Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya National Institute for Persons with Physical Disabilities (Divyangjan) has developed a three-dimensional printed spinal orthosis for people with disabilities suffering from cancer.

The first such instrument was fitted in a patient on Thursday in the presence of Social Justice and Empowerment Minister Virendra Kumar, according to an official statement.
