All students have access to social and general education resources, and schools strive to place students, including those with special needs, in the least restrictive classrooms. However, many instructors lack the training to effectively teach special needs students, despite their presence in mainstream schools and a desire to support them. A study conducted at the Asha Deep Rehabilitation Centre for Divyangjan in Patna explored special education facilities. It examined the center's history, vision, mission, goals, curriculum, co-curricular activities, life skills training, vocational training, outcomes, and the admission and retention of children. Additionally, the book includes information on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, of 2016, the RPWD Rules of 2017, and the Amendment Rules of 2019, 2020, and 2023, highlighting India's legal rights for the disabled.
