Inclusion is the buzzword of present age. The dynamism of the field of education indicates that it has to accommodate and facilitate learners from various backgrounds. The essence of inclusive education lies in including children from any background or any special category with the mainstream. In most cases, inclusion of children with special needs is the issue. But this is not possible only through policies. The policies are to be implemented in real sense by the ground-workers, i.e. the teachers. Therefore, orienting the teachers in inclusive education is also an integral part of providing quality education to everyone. The present study will provide a ground report of the inclusive practices of the teachers in the schools of Assam and an understanding of the requirement of teacher-training in this regard. Survey method was used for the study and 300 hundred teachers from six districts of Assam were given a self-structured oppinionnaire to asses their perception towards inclusive education and also being assessed the training need for teachers for successful implementation of inclusive education in schools. The results of the showed that teachers were possessed a clear perception regarding the needs and importance of inclusive practices in schools but they equally emphasized appropriate training for teachers on inclusive education.
