Special Olympics – games and sports with focus on mentally challenged.
Paralympics – games and sports mainly for persons with locomotor disabilities.
Abilympics – vocational skills competitions for persons with all disabilities. The focus is to showcase the abilities not the disabilities. International Abilympics are held once in four years.
Worldwide three major organizations organize events for persons with disabilities :

for the first time to commemorate the United Nations
International Year for Disabled Persons. The second, third,

India ,Japan and South Korea respectively.

Ministries of Human Resource Development &

disability. No concession is made for severity of disability.

by an individual participant or leader of the
