DID is a unique sensory experience that allows participants to explore darkness using their four senses. It is recognized as one of the most successful social experiments in the world.

By participating in Dialogue in the Dark, business leaders can experience firsth and the abilities of persons with disabilities, leading to a more inclusive and empathetic workforce. This experience is instrumental in bringing about positive change in the workforce by encouraging leaders to advocate for and implement inclusive practices within their organizations.

The program was inaugurated by Sri Jayesh Ranjan (IAS), Special Secretary of the Industries & Commerce (I&C) and Information Technology (IT) Departments, Govt of Telangana. In the presence of Mr. Mahankali Srinivas Rao (MSR), Chief Executive Officer (CEO), T-Hub along with senior management of Gemini, Edibles & Fats India on 2nd July 2024 at 6,30 pm.

  Budget Reaction from  Mr. Anand Kr. Maloo, President- F&A, M.S. Agarwal Foundries "I commend Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on today's budget, which prioritizes the steel industry's growth with increased allocations, enhancing its competitiveness and driving economic growth. The removal of the 2.5% basic customs duty on the import of ferronickel for stainless steel and specialty alloys is a significant and positive step. Increased spending on infrastructure, affordable housing, and internship opportunities fosters innovation and entrepreneurship. The abolition of the Angel Tax and the increased Mudra loan limit to 20 lakhs will support small businesses. While the rise in LTCG could have been avoided, the budget demonstrates a commitment to building a resilient steel sector and driving economic growth. Overall, the budget is a forward-looking and growth-oriented initiative that will benefit India's economy."
