Delhi Deputy Chief Minister, Manish Sisodia, on Friday, distributed laptops and other learning aids to over 5,000 children with special needs in schools run by the city government.
As per an official statement, the Delhi Deputy Chief Minister, Manish Sisodia, has distributed laptops and other learning aids to over 5,000 children with special needs studying in schools run by the city government. The initiative was carried out under the Delhi government's Talent Promotion Policy through which children with special needs are provided support in the form of suitable aids, equipment and learning materials.
"Children with special needs are determined to learn but they often face challenges in different aspects of life, which hinders their development and restricts them from participating at the community level. The Talent Promotion Scheme is a small step by the (Arvind) Kejriwal government to provide support to the special children in our schools and help them enhance their productivity and efficiency," said Manish Sisodia, as reported by PTI.
This scheme covers specially-abled children under 21 categories and helps them enhance their learning abilities and productivity.
