Dr. Narayan Singh Manaklao, a college professor-turned-social worker, started SKSN in 1991. While attending a village wedding in 1990, he noticed that a physically challenged man was constantly being chased away by the elders, and was being prevented from joining in the wedding celebrations.When Dr Manaklao asked him who he was, and why this kind of treatment was being meted out to him, the sad-looking man replied 'I am the bride's uncle, but I'm not being allowed to take part in the wedding ceremonies because of my ugly disability. My family doesn't think that I fit in with the community. They say that my presence will ruin the wedding'. Appalled at listening to such a devastating account, the statement gave birth to Dr Manaklao's goal to provide every single disabled child from the State of Rajasthan with an education. Hence, the school began its life with about 20 disabled children being taught under a tree.
