In a mission to support differently-abled kids, Kerala has started as many as 62 free and open special schools in the state. They are managed by the local government institutions with the support and guidance of Kudumbashree Mission and the community. 

District BUDS Special School Youth Festival was conducted at Government College in Malappuram recently. A few photos of two teachers, captured by Sameer A Hameed, published on the Manorama newspaper, have now caught the attention of the netizens.
