Pune-based Divyanshu Ganatra had earlier this year become the first visually-challenged person in India to paraglide and now he aims to become the first such person to go tandem cycling on the difficult terrain of the Himalayas.
Along with software professional Gagan Grover, Ganatra is set to start a 550-km trail from Manali to Khardungla on Saturday. They will have a team of three friends supporting them. Designed to be ridden by two persons, tandem cycling comes with its own set of challenges which get accentuated on hilly terrains.

The Yomiuri ShimbunA visually impaired man died after he fell onto the tracks and was run over by a train at a subway station in Tokyo. It was a heartrending accident. Steps should be taken to prevent a recurrence.
The accident happened at Aoyama-Itchome Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line. The station’s platform is barely three meters wide and has many large round pillars. The man, who was walking with a guide dog, is said to have lost his footing as he approached the edge of the platform just before a pillar.

In a world that often lacks vision, a group of volunteers has stepped up to make life easier for the visually impaired. Dhvani Granth is an initiative to record books for the visually impaired students.
