Teachers at the Ebenezer School and Home for the Visually Impaired first spotted Tsang Tsz-Kwan having trouble deciphering characters when she was just 4 years old.

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.

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.
