Lakhs of students will appear for the Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) examination from today, but several face more than just the exam stress. These are students who need writers. Many visually challenged students were struggling for writers till yesterday, while other students with special needs had also crowded the state board's Mumbai Division office in Vashi, seeking help for the same. Even after Education Minister Vinod Tawde boasted about preparing a bank of writers, nothing has been done regarding it. Till Tuesday, several visually-challenged students were circulating messages on social media to find writers.
