Indore: As a relief for the visually impaired college-goers as one of its first, Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) is now in planning to develop educational content for them. The varsity will also be arranging for additional resources in terms of books and even audio books for the students. At present, the visually impaired college goers are primarily dependent on recordings during their classes and their classmates. While there are audio notes available. However, those are mostly arranged by Non Profit Organizations (NGOs) and not by the varsity or higher educational institutions (HEIs).
