Affordable indigenous assistive devices continue to be developed and distributed under the ADIP scheme, with the Artificial Limbs Manufacturing Corporation of India (ALIMCO) as the main implementing agency manufacturing aids and running Samajik Adhikarita Shivirs and Pradhan Mantri Divyasha Kendras nationwide.
