In Delhi, the campaign launched with more than 300 visually impaired students receiving AI-enabled Smarton smart glasses. Similar initiatives followed in Anand, Pune, Bhubaneswar, and Varanasi, where beneficiaries received smart glasses, Orbit readers, hearing aids, and mobility devices.
The campaign also expanded access to education, livelihood, and healthcare. In Nashik, blind high-school students received smartphones equipped with accessibility software, while Belgaum beneficiaries were provided assistive devices along with self-employment kits to support economic independence.

The initiative concluded with a community celebration in Chandigarh, marking a year of impactful service and renewed commitment to expanding accessibility in 2026.
“Vision Drive 2025 is not just a campaign — it is proof that when technology, compassion, and collective WILL come together, no barrier is insurmountable. Every smart glass we distributed, every wheelchair we delivered, and every eye surgery we delivered, represents a life transformed and a future reclaimed,” Pranav Desai, founder, Voice of Specially Abled People (VOSAP) said.
Community leaders, Members of Parliament, disability advocates, and donors participated in these events, which were carried out in partnership with local NGOs, government agencies, educational institutions, and assistive technology providers.
The organization described Vision Drive 2025 as a critical milestone toward its Vision 2047 for Divyangjan—a long-term blueprint for a fully inclusive India by the centenary of Independence.
