Asha Bhat, Miss Supranational 2014, took a vow here on Monday to raise awareness about autism and dyslexia.
On behalf of BRAIN, a research-based educational institute, Ms. Bhat said she would actively campaign for the cause so that those suffering from the disorders get timely intervention. The centre, in the past decade, has undertaken research and intervention programmes for over 400 children with learning and development disorders.
D. Shashi Kumar, director of the centre, said children with learning disability need to be given special attention.
