Staff Reporter

CHENNAI: : Visually impaired youth can pursue economics and English for graduation, which will be of great help to them, L.N. Vijayaraghavan, Secretary, Social Welfare and Nutritious Meal Programme Department, said on Saturday.

Speaking at the anniversary function of the College Students and Graduates Association of the Blind, he said statistics showed that a majority of the visually disabled students obtained their degrees in Tamil or History.

Instead, they could study Economics or English, which offered better scope for employment.

He assured the association members that his department would give them audiocassettes for their education.

Mementos were presented to readers who help the visually impaired persons.
