SRINAGAR: Two deaf and mute orphan siblings from the Hussanpora Bagh area of Bijbehara in south Kashmir’s Anantnag district have excelled in the 10th class examination, the results of which were declared on Monday.
Mohammad Ahsan and Bisma Jan, students of the Zaiba Appa Institute of Inclusive Education in Bijbehara, secured 361 and 389 marks, respectively. The siblings lost their parents about a decade ago and have been raised by their brother.
In a conversation with the news agency KNO through sign language, Ahsan and Bisma expressed their gratitude to Javed Ahmad Tak, a Padma Shri awardee who established the school, providing education to hundreds of specially-abled students.
They emphasised that individuals with disabilities should never lose hope but should pursue their dreams with passion. They believe that everyone, regardless of their abilities, can lead a successful and joyful life.
However, the siblings expressed the need for separate schools and colleges for specially-abled children to enable them to lead independent lives.
Their brother, Owais Ahmad, shared the challenges he faced while Ahsan and Bisma were studying in primary classes. Despite working as a laborer, Owais is determined to ensure that his siblings continue their education, allowing them to secure good jobs and be self-reliant. (KNO)
