- About Government Rehabilitation Institute for Intellectual Disabilities:
Historically a small class of 4-5 mentally retarded children was started in 1964 in the Government College of Education, Chandigarh by Sh. J. S. Gandhi, Lecturer in Psychology in the college. Within a short period, the number of students increased & a separate building was hired for these children. It was established with the aim of providing educational and vocational training to mentally retarded children with the recognition of the fact that with the proper training and facilities to such children, they can be rehabilitated and made to adjust themselves to the demands of society. Now the institute is under the direct control and supervision of department of Psychiatry, Govt. Medical College & Hospital, Sector 32, Chandigarh, India In the year 1973, the control of this institute was transferred from Govt.
