Patients who will meet the inclusion criteria will be recruited by convenience sampling technique and allocated to groups by simple randomization process by sealed opaque enveloped labeled as 0 for Group A and 1 for Group B.
After taking consent from the patients parents with hemiplegic CP of both genders will be randomized into two equal groups. Patients from physical therapy department will be assessed with CHEQ and Melbourne Assessment of the Unilateral Upper Limb Function (MAULF) and the Functional Hand Grip Test (FHGT) . At start of study, a formal educational session, lasting about 30 min will be given by physiotherapist.
Group A: This group patients will be treated with mCIMT, the forced use of the affected arm by restraining the unaffected arm, with a sling or a hand splint, during dedicated exercise sections or usual ADLs (90% of waking hours).Massed practice (eight hours of exercise) of the affected arm through a shaping method, where shaping involves a commonly operant conditioning method in which a behavioural objective (in this case 'movement') is approached in small steps of progressively increasing difficulty. The participant is rewarded with enthusiastic approval for improvement, but never blamed or punished for failure. This therapy will be given 4hrs daily for 6 weeks. The results will be based upon pre and post evaluation.
Group B: These patients will be treated with mCIMT and mirror therapy. Children were taught repetitive symmetrical upper limbs exercises: with modelling-clay in each hand to elicit bilateral thumb-finger pinch and grasping. They performed these during a 15-minute daily routine at home with mCIMT (forced use of arm and massed practice 4hrs of exercise of affected arm). This combination of therapy will be given for 6 weeks. The results will be seen through pre and post evaluation.
