Delhi Government Plans To Build A Residential Home For Mentally Challenged Children In Narela
The Delhi government will construct a residential home for mentally challenged children on a 9.7-acre plot of land in Narela.
Social Welfare Minister Raaj Kumar Anand met with department officials and gave approval to build the residential home in Mamurpur village of Narela, specifically designed for boys with special needs, they said.
According to the Delhi government, the residential home will initially accept 456 boys with special needs.
“The plan is underway to construct the home on a 9.7-acre plot of land in Mamurpur village, Narela. Currently, these newly-built residential homes are being initiated exclusively for boys with disabilities,” Anand said.
He stated that the residential home’s infrastructure will be modern, and that a multi-purpose hall will be built, where workshops and programmes for people with special needs will be held on a regular basis.
“Rehabilitation centres would be established for specially-abled individuals in the newly-constructed residential home. Through these centres, the main focus would be to identify and evaluate their disabilities. Additionally, eligible individuals would be provided with necessary assistive devices, such as hearing aids, wheelchairs, crutches, spectacles and other supportive tools according to their needs, for free,” the minister said.
“Counselling by psychologists and speech therapists would also provide free treatment for stammering and speech-related problems,” he added.
