About Aakanksha
Aakanksha is like an umbrella patronising services to special children by deploying bottom top approach with 360 degrees spectrum. Those were the days when we were ignorant about the prevalence of disability but after 25 years too what services render today is like a drop in the ocean, when we collate the figures of disability. The 2011 census recorded 2,68,10,557 as disabled population in India and 6,24,937 in our Chhattisgarh State.
To proffer services genuinely more trained faculty and a positive approach Although our state government is very proactive in assisting and supporting persons with disability there is still lacuna in the form of dire need of networking among various organisations working for the same noble cause to reach the unreached areas too.
