Gujarat Student Develops Initiatives to Support Visually Impaired Learners
Zeus Lalani, a Class 12 student from Vadodara, Gujarat, has launched two initiatives—Project Eklavya and Project Saksham—to support visually impaired students. Project Eklavya provides tactile learning materials, books, and workshops, reaching over 500 people across three districts. Project Saksham connects students with volunteer scribes for examinations and has onboarded 50 scribes and 100 users. Lalani also proposed a scribe-certification framework to enhance volunteer readiness. His work highlights ongoing gaps in India's inclusive education system despite existing policies.
