It is estimated that 5% population (approx) suffer from one or other form of disability. Malnutrition, lack of hygiene and inadequate/delay in medical services, infectious diseases, accidents, etc. may cause impairment leading to disability. For rehabilitation of such persons, the appropriate services need to be widely available. The disability has been broadly grouped as : i) ii) iii) iv) Locomotor disability Hearing impairment Mental retardation & mental illness. Blindness or low vision. The Government, NGOs and civil society institutions have been providing services to the persons with disabilities since long, but these efforts have gained momentum since 1970’s when the decade was marked by a new approach to disability with the concept of “Rights for Disabled Persons”. The United Nations took the lead and issued declarations relating to Rights to the Disabled Persons (1975). The decade 1983-92 was declared as the “Decade of the Disabled Persons”. This was followed by the “Asia and Pacific Decade of Disabled Persons” (1993-2002). The standard rules for the equalization of opportunities for persons with disabilities were adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1993. Since 1970, Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, Govt. of India has established several Institutions to train professionals/manpower in the field of rehabilitation. There are four National Institutes viz. National Institute for the Orthopaedically Handicapped at Kolkata, AYJ National Institute for the Hearing Handicapped at Mumbai, National Institute for the Visually Handicapped at Dehradun, National Institute for the Mentally Handicapped at Secunderabad and two apex Institute, viz., Swami Vivekanand National Institute of Rehabilitation Training and Research at Cuttack and Pt.Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Institute for the Physically Handicapped at New Delhi. These Institutes are conducting training programs at Diploma, Degree and Postgraduate level in their respective disciplines. The Institutes also carry out research; develop models of rehabilitation services, manpower development, and clinical & therapeutic services. They also have extensive outreach programs so that services are available in a decentralized manner. Over the years, the Institutes have trained thousands of professionals who are working all over the Country and abroad. In addition to the above, the Ministry has also established Composite Regional Centres, District Disability Rehabilitation Centres, supporting to voluntary action programs and National Program of Rehabilitation of Persons with Disabilities under state sector scheme.
