New Delhi recently introduced read-aloud software for the visually impaired

The Equal Opportunity Cell of Delhi University registered 13 physically challenged (PH) students on Monday. For the first time, the forms were read out to visually impaired students through JAWS software. Deputy Dean of Students Welfare Seema Parihar said the forms had to be filled up manually. She added that the number of seats for PH students had been increased to more than 1,500 this year, but like past years, there might not be enough students to fill all up. Handbooks for PH students have also been introduced this year.
