Abstract

The inclusive education concept is not new to India but has gained prevalence in last decade when the Right to Education (RtE) became a fundamental right. The underlying thought of inclusive education is that every child is treated equally and given a space to realize his/her true potential. It also implies pedagogical practices inside the school where needs of every individual is duly recognized irrespective of the caste, class, ethnic, gender and ability differences. Though inclusive education policy seems friendly, effective and accommodating with the myriad needs of the differently-abled children, its often lackadaisical implementation presents a disquieting picture on the ground.
