1st residential school for specially abled children inaugurated in HP

SHIMLA:

Sukhu was in Shimla district's Hiranagar area to inaugurate the first residential school for specially abled children. Constructed at a cost of ₹6.67 crore, the school caters to children aged 6 to 18 years and would offer state-of-the-art facilities to them.

Speaking on the occasion, the CM said this school was the first of its kind in Himachal Pradesh and will provide free quality education along with vocational training and free accommodation facilities for the students.

The school comprises 16 modern classrooms, including a computer lab, music room and a multipurpose hall. The hostel block accommodates 50 children and includes a medical room as well as residential quarters for the staff.

Sukhu said the present state government was working with utmost dedication and commitment for the welfare of children. He said that Himachal Pradesh was the first state in the country to legislate for the care and education of destitute children.
