The day is meant to enlighten motorists, pedestrians and the public on the importance of white cane to the blind person.
As we observe the day, we should change our attitude towards the blind people, and give them all the necessary support they deserve in society.
The need to empower the blind people is very important, especially at the time when we have massive flow of traffic in every part of the country.

These people are equally human beings and therefore need equal treatment.
