ART40 organise 11th Blind People Car Rally

Ahmedabad Round Table (ART 40) is associated with Blind Peoples car rally since last 12 years. The rally was conceptualized by ART 40 and now we are proud to say many cities have now taken up this cause. To highlight the difference between ‘sight’ and ‘vision’, the rally has a driver who can see but will be guided by a blind person who can ‘visualize the route through a chart which is given to him only in Braille. This event in the past has evoked a very enthusiastic response not only from the blind youngsters but also from youth of Ahmedabad who see an opportunity to take part in a rally approved by Federation of motor sports club in India and at the same time can take satisfaction of doing their bit for the disabled people.
WHO ARE BENEFITED BY THIS RALLY?
Such a rally encourages the sightless to go in for adventures showing that nothing is impossible. The rally is aimed at creating public awareness about the potential of the blind and developing a feeling of competition among them. It is a car rally with a difference.
