The President urged visitors to stop by the cafe while visiting the Rashtrapati Bhavan, highlighting its role in empowering Divyangjan and their families.
“Do remember to visit the Mitti Café when you are at Rashtrapati Bhavan,” she added.
The initiative provides livelihood opportunities to persons with disabilities by employing them in the hospitality sector. The Cafe is part of a wider network of Mitti Cafes across India, known for their mission to promote inclusion and economic independence for individuals with physical, intellectual, and psychiatric disabilities.
Located within the Rashtrapati Bhavan premises, the Cafe offers visitors not just refreshments but also a meaningful experience — one that celebrates diversity and human potential.
President Murmu’s message underscores her continued advocacy for inclusivity and empowerment of marginalized communities. The initiative aligns with the government’s broader efforts to create accessible workplaces and encourage social acceptance of differently-abled individuals.
The Mitti Café at Rashtrapati Bhavan has quickly become both a symbol of social change and a source of inspiration, demonstrating how compassion and opportunity can come together to build a more equitable society.
