The matter was taken up by the court suo motu based on a plea moved by the mother of two children, aged 7 and 2, who suffer from congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
The eldest of the two is also 90% autistic. It was claimed that the child is unable to fulfill his physical needs and requires constant care and companionship.
Moreover, it was stated that the child cannot attend school and even hurts himself and his brother.
Therefore, the plea sought aid from the State government.
