Keeping in mind PM Narendra Modi’s vision to make education accessible to the disabled and the underprivileged, HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar revealed that the upcoming education policy will have several provisions.

Managements of various schools have already been asked to provide ramps in buildings and make available separate toilets for the disabled or modify/upgrade the existing toilets.
