No efforts from the government have been put forward to end the protest as the authorities remain silent spectators. Moreover no other concerned department is willing to provide any explanation. The blind protesters have refused to end their sit in until their demands are fulfilled. The visually impaired people have asked the government to provide them employment and salaries.
