Well, to point at Avinash bro, its a nice initiative you want to take in hand by discussing about the empowerment of the visually challenged of the state from which the political personality contesting to become the defacto head of the country. as far as my awareness, i have heard from some of my friends from Gujarat that it is also the same like the rest of the states in india. just a sympathetic approach, not an empathetic approach. i personally disappointed from praful sir's reply as being a person from Gujarat he himself couldn't symbolise the empowerment of the blind and the disabled in his state. if we mention just a mere name of a scheme, then we can say India is much better than the rest of the world in the development of the disabled. every state has its own schemes for the disabled, but alas most of them happened to be counterfeit. my observation is, not much improvement in Gujarat in the part of disabled people's concern. its also 1 among 29 states with sheepish mentality towards the disabled. i heard from one of my friends from Gujarat that visually challenged people haven't recognised to be a professer that's why the visually challenged professers in Gujarat are very less. am not sure of the authentisity of the above statement, i request you to get it confirmed. finally, a good effort, my best wishes.
