It was also the first time an audio film was screened in Punjab. On Gandhi Jayanti today, visually impaired people from across Punjab shared the special experience of silently enjoying a film without seeking support from someone. Students, disability group activists, professionals and intellectuals from various districts including Chandigarh, Ludhiana, Amritsar among other cities and villages all joined each other in this special screening of Lord Richard Attenborough’s Gandhi on Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary today. This unique experience was made possible by the NGO Saksham (which in Hindi means capable).
