Students with disabilities need care

Disabled persons can engage themselves in income-generating activities even sitting on wheelchairs if their brains work properly

Executives of various organisations working with persons with disabilities in Rangpur observed that the students with disabilities and special needs require proper attention, opportunities and facilities to become educated and worthy citizens through flourishing their enormous latent talents. According to a report in this newspaper yesterday, the physically challenged students might contribute their maximum to the nation building activities if special steps taken by the government were properly implemented along with taking some other necessary steps.
The disabled people are not burden on their families, society or the state if they are groomed up as productive force. The persons suffering from disability will have to be brought under the mainstream population. Disabled boys or girls taking part in examinations make newspaper headlines some times through their brilliant performances. Those who have no hands are seen writing with the help of legs; even some are seen writing answer scripts putting pens within their mouths. Are these not ample proofs that they are overcoming their limitations in these ways?   
What is needed is proper education and rigorous training for the disabled people to make them skilled productive force. If it is done they will be able to earn for themselves, for their families and can also contribute to the development of the country. In this way, they can live with dignity and not as objects of pity. In this age of globalization, information technology can do miracle for the people with disability. By gaining technological skills, the disabled segment of the population can be self-reliant, support their families and even they can generate employment for others.
 The disabled people need proper infrastructural support. Government can provide it. The NGOs of the country can also come forward in the aid of the disabled ones. Disabled people should get some special privilege in public and private transports. They should also be treated with humility at government offices. As the disabled people receive assistance from the state they can also return; this is a two-way traffic.  
Disabled persons can engage themselves in income-generating activities even sitting on wheel-chairs if their brains work properly. Strong will of a person is what matters. The families of the persons with disabilities must be conscious in this regard. Proper medical treatment, financial, familial, social and psychological support can rejuvenate the dampening spirit of a disabled person. The government has taken some measures for the welfare of the disabled people. More such measures can help the disabled ones to overcome their miseries greatly.
