GUWAHATI: More than 1,000 Braille units have been distributed to visually impaired people in Assam as part of the first 100 days of the NDA 3 government, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Tuesday, August 1.
In a post on X, Sarma said the initiative was aimed at supporting the learning journey of visually impaired people and promoting inclusive access to education.
“While some of my young friends may not be able to see the development happening in Assam, they will definitely be a part of this transformation,” he said.
Sarma said the distribution was carried out under the #100DaysOfNDA3 initiative and highlighted it as part of the state government’s initiatives during the first 100 days of its latest term.
Braille is a tactile reading and writing system that enables people who are blind or visually impaired to read and write using raised-dot patterns.
