Poliomyelitis, also called polio or infantile paralysis, is an acute viral infectious disease spread from person to person, primarily via the fecal-oral route. The virus of this dangerous disease enters the central nervous system, preferentially infecting and destroying motor neurons, leading to muscle weakness and acute flaccid paralysis. There are different types of this ailment and it affects the legs of the victim mostly and leads to the weakness of the muscles. Polio Operation Camps are conducted by Param Shakti Peeth in order to make people cure from this historically devastating disease.

These operations are done by well qualified and experienced doctors. The most common person is also benefited by these camps because it is absolutely free. The best gift of God for us is to see smile on the face of such a person who cannot afford such an operation.
