thank you for simplifying the word "VI" as "blind". It is my strong opinion
that we have made ourselves complicated by calling visually impaired, person
with total absense of sight, sightless person, visually disabled and so on.
Now the primary word "blind" came out on the result of this topic.

Subject: [AI] Newz Hook Clarification on Ajay Minocha Story
Hi All,
At Newz Hook, we pride ourselves is sharing stories about the amazing work
being done by people with disabilities, their achievements, their
challenges. There is so little done to share the good that is happening
around people with disabilities.
We, Newz Hook stands by our story regarding Ajay Minocha being the "first
blind CFA charter holder from India. The only other CFA charter holder has
low vision. He also has the relevant work experience required for the CFA
charter which makes all the facts stated true.”
We understand that some confusion may have arisen over the initial headline
which said Ajay Minocha is the first VI person. Upon receiving an update,
NewzHook immediately corrected the headline to say first blind person
We would also like to congratulate Ajay Minocha for having achieved this. We
don’t want to take away from any other person, but we believe that successes
like this need to be shared and applauded.
Thanks
Shilpi Kapoor
CEO, Newz Hook
