A Mumbai-based organisation has helped bolster the confidence of visually impaired individuals, offering them a chance to be part of a beloved festival tradition. The initiative has seen remarkable success, with the Dahi Handi Pathak formed by Nayan Foundation competing in various Dahi Handi events across Mumbai. To date, the organisation has helped 250 visually impaired individuals become part of these high-energy celebrations.
Each time the group wins prize money, it is equally distributed among the participants. Additionally, a portion of the winnings is set aside to further support the visually impaired individuals, providing them with resources and opportunities to enhance their quality of life.
