Abstract
The present set of results pertains to data collected in the Census 2011 on disability. Information on disability of individuals was collected by Registrar of Census during the Population enumeration phase of Census 2011 through ‘Household Schedule’. Information for individuals residing in ‘Normal’, ‘Institutional’ and ‘Houseless’ households were collected. The paper shows that the share of disabled children in the disabled population of respective states is high. In large number of States/UTS the disabled were non-workers. It means that they are depending on other family members for livelihood.
