Introduction
For centuries, Deaf and mute people had to undergo the treatment of being viewed as incomplete because of their absence of hearing. Some people mock Signing in front of Deaf people.

Or tell them how sorry they are that they can't hear the birds singing or the phone ringing.
The main challenges that they face is little access to education and almost no opportunity for gainful employment. Not just on the academic front, but also on the emotional front, they face numerous problems in their life.
