Indore eatery's Braille menu empowers visually impaired diners

Gurkripa restaurant in Indore initiates Braille menus, promoting social equality.

The Confederation of Indian Industry's Young Indians group spearheads the project after discussions with restaurant operators.

Mahesh Drishtihin Kalyan Sangh School visually impaired children were invited to place orders independently using the Braille menu cards. Young Indians Group plans to distribute Braille menu cards to other restaurants, fostering self-reliance among visually impaired individuals.

Braille menus empower visually impaired patrons, reducing dependence on others while ordering food. The initiative aims to extend to other cities, ensuring inclusivity in dining experiences for visually impaired individuals.

Simran Bhatia Sharma, owner of Gurkripa restaurant, expresses enthusiasm for the initiative and pledges to implement Braille menus across all seven of their restaurants. "Today, when we saw children placing orders by reading the menu card in Braille, we felt very happy. Every restaurant owner should start this initiative."
