Disability is not a curse and disabled are not the burden of our society. One can be disabled due to many reasons. Generally wrong treatment; heredity and blood relation between father and mother, malnutrition, etcetera are the main reasons behind the disability. If you can realise that your child cannot hear or see, you go to the doctor without any delay. And if you fail to treat your child, don't be disheartened. Because, that disabled child can be an asset if you take care of it properly and timely. Consequently that child can be an architect of his/her own fortune beyond doubt. He/she cannot be dependent on others.

Once there was no institution for disabled but now the educational institutions for the disabled have been established in almost every district. So if we extend our helping hands to the disabled, they can advance forward competing with the able ones. With the light of education the disabled children can avail opportunity to be conscious about their rights. So, try to win the disability.
