AHMEDABAD: Birwa Hadial was ecstatic when she passed the CA final exams on Tuesday. Her parents Damji and Krishna, however, were over the moon. The blind couple cannot see, but they had always seen to it that they raised their daughter well and helped her attain heights through education.
Up close with Ashwini Angadi, who arrived in the city on Monday, after being honoured by the UN in New York.
She walks into the room quietly and with measured grace. Her parents are elated with joy and pride that their daughter suddenly seems to be the toast of the town, with every newspaper and television channel clamoring to get her interview.
The visually impaired students of a Thanjavur school who refused to come to Chennai for higher education have been told they have no choice.
A total of 19 boys and three girls of the Thanjavur High School for the Visually Impaired had wanted to remain in their hometown as their families would not be able to afford to visit them in Chennai, they said.
For four years, the school, with sufficient student intake, has been awaiting sanction to add classes XI and XII.

In a remarkable feat, avisually challenged student in an Islamic studies centre here has memorised the Holy Quran entirely using the Braille script.
Twaha Mahboob, a 21-year-old student of the College of Tahfeelul Quran under Ma'din Academy, came in for praise from a gathering scholars and students when he recited verses from the Quran at a conference at the campus recently.
Though it is not rare for blind people to memorise the Quran, learning the holy text through Braille script is rare, according to some scholars at the conference.
Blindness did not stop me from fighting, said Kartik Sawhney, the visually challenged student who is now set to make the nation proud, by being accepted to Stanford. He was in Chennai on Saturday to conduct a workshop on Maths and Science Learning for visually impaired students. This young achiever, who just graduated high school, is someone who a lot of individuals look up to. By successfully completing his Class 12 with a 96 per cent score, he became the country’s first ever visually impaired student to pass, studying science.
