According to DU Beat, college principal Professor Gyantosh Kumar Jha issued an official notice on October 23, 2026. The announcement follows an email received on October 22, 2026, from the Equal Opportunity Cell and the Office of the Standing Counsel for Disability at the University of Delhi. [1]

Assistive technology includes adaptive and rehabilitative devices designed to support people with disabilities in performing daily activities. Assistive equipment promotes greater independence by enabling individuals to accomplish tasks that were previously difficult or unachievable. [4]

The distribution at Atma Ram Sanatan Dharma College follows similar initiatives across higher education. As HEROIC BREAKING NEWS reported earlier, Andhra Loyola College in Vijayawada previously organized a three-day digital training workshop and provided specialized laptops to visually impaired students to support independent learning.
