Challenged people
If you keep our eyes open we can see that about 5% people are physically or mentally disabled. The rights of autistic people are strictly followed in the developed countries or they provide better facilities to them but the developing countries like Bangladesh could not afford minimum facilities to them.
They have no proper medical facilities and accommodation facilities. In our country, they face a lot of obstacles to lead or move freely. Most schools do not give them admission. They are not treated in a friendly manner.
We all know that our present govt. has announced that the autistic children will be admitted in all public or private institutions. It is a praiseworthy decision. The PM also announced special quotas in the PSC and all other job sectors for them. She announced tax exemption for those private institutions who would give jobs to them.
The government should now implement the policies announced by the prime minister.
