Although, the above data of 2001 census is irrelevent in 2011 end but if you compare the data with other states then you will find that bihar comes at second position in india in context of the disabled population. Indeed, much resources, manpower and will power is wanted if the govt. and other organizations want to see some positive results in disability rehabilitation.
