Government's policies and programmes for rehabilitation of differently able people

Disabilities covers impairments, activity limitations, and participation restrictions. It restricts a person to participate and move. Disability is not just a health problem, it is a complex phenomenon, reflecting the interaction between features of a person's body and features of the society in which he or she lives. Evidence suggests that people with disabilities face barriers in accessing the health and rehabilitation services they need in many settings. To fight against disability there are various programs for different disabilities in India. Government is very much serious on differently able people and issues of disability but we need more fundamental reenvisioning of the nature of disability estimates. Disability status is often transitory or a matter of insidious change, and a person's ability to function properly depends to a considerable extent on her/his social and physical environment. Political issues tend to make disability an issue closely bound up with citizenship, and the changing nature of the state with respect to its subjects. Disability enquiries must become increasingly participative in nature, focusing on greater engagement with lived realities, rather than being fixated with numbers.
