In a celebration of resilience and national pride, a group of 80 laryngectomy survivors came together to perform a stirring rendition of the National Anthem, ‘Jana Gana Mana’, during the Republic Day celebrations at Hyderabad-based Basavatarakam Indo-American Cancer Hospital & Research Institute (BIACH&RI), Hyderabad, on Monday and received certification from World Book of
Records, London.
The unique milestone is the first of its kind, showcasing the determination of individuals who have reclaimed their voices after life-altering surgery.
The performance was made possible through advanced voice rehabilitation techniques, including the use of electrolarynx devices and tracheoesophageal voice prostheses (TEP).
