BSES begins power bills in Braille for visually impaired
Power distribution companies BSES Rajdhani Power Limited (BRPL) and BSES Yamuna Power Limited (BYPL) on Wednesday launched electricity bills in Braille as part of their outreach to the visually impaired.
January 4 is observed as World Braille Day to honour French educator Louis Braille, who developed the tactile representational system which is used by the visually impaired to “read” books and texts.
BSES’s first Braille bill was launched by noted lawyer SK Rungta, who is the general secretary of the National Federation of the Blind, at the BSES head office at Nehru Place. BSES director Amal Sinha, BRPL CEO Vineet Sikka and BYPL CEO Amarjeet Singh were also present.
