Dear All, Please find the below Daily Eyeway Alerts: 1. News- Visually impaired, but opens India’s eyes to water harvesting RAJKOT: “There is no light in my eyes but I have the spark that can ignite the life of our next generation.” Meet 60-year-old Mahendrasinh Zala of Rajkot who hooked a curveball that life threw at him right out of his boundary, and how. While he had to hang his boots early on from his government job after losing 90 percent of his eyesight, Zala did not lose his vision — of mitigating the annual water scarcity problems he faced. And so, instead of sitting idle despairing about his disability, the retired man started a water harvesting project at his Kothariya colony house in Rajkot. The success that this sexagenarian met in his venture was enough to fetch him the Jalshakti department’s coveted award — the ‘water hero’. Today, Zala harvests around 1 lakh litre of water every monsoon. I am doing it for our future generation. People usually save money for their children, but I am saving water,” Zala told TOI. Zala had suffered serious injuries in both eyes in 1992 while playing volleyball. Suffering from retina detachment, the mechanical engineer slowly lost his vision. He was working as a supervising instructor with an ITI and ultimately when he was robbed of eyesight, purblind Zala opted for VRS in 2013.
