It is a dream come true for 32-year-old Shabnam Nisha and 36-year-old Neel Roop as they were the first couple to tie the knot at the Senior Citizens Home in Samabula.
Nisha who is a person living with disability since birth has been living in the home for 4 months since her eviction last year and is currently pregnant with their first child.
Speaking at the matrimonial ceremony today, Nisha says that living with a disability is a unique challenge in life and she advised people with disabilities not to put themselves down and to strive for their goals in life.
The couple are bound to move into a HART home provided by the Ministry of Poverty Alleviation, after their marriage.
