Complete works of Tagore now in Braille

Express News Service

Kolkata, May 9: Tagore's birthday came as a precious gift for the
visually- challenged people of the city. The complete works of Tagore
has been transcripted
in Braille by Media Lab Asia and Webel Mediatronics Limited, a
subsidiary of the West Bengal Electronics Industry Development
Corporation Ltd (WBEIDC).

State IT minister Debesh Das today handed over the complete works of
Rabindranath Tagore in Braille to the State Central Library apart from
presenting 19
volumes of Galpoguchho to 38 blind schools and other organisations for
the visually handicapped.

The minister said, "The Braille version of Tagore's works is just a
fragment of the line-up of projects we have. More such creative
initiatives are on cards."
He added that the government would soon set up a consortium and
excellence centre and budgetary allocations have already been made for
the purpose. However,
he failed to specify the amount that would be required to set up the
centre.

"I also had a discussion with the Spastic Society to chalk out ways to
help the inmates out," he said.

The minister added that the government has taken measures to ensure the
extension of internet and broadband services in rural areas of the
state.
