Not only the family members but also every section of the society should try to support these children, he said.

He was speaking at the inaugural function of cerebral palsy check-up camp organised by Samvedna, a trust for children with disability.

Amrit Abhijat said the government is running different programmes for the education, treatment and rehabilitation of disabled children.

Private agencies can play an important role in making these programmes accessible to these special children. Any such effort made by a private agency or NGO will be fully supported by the district administration, he said.
