Real story of resilience

The other highlight was a session on ‘Story of Resilience and Endurance with the captain of Indian Blind Cricket team Shekhar Naik. Member of Reserve Bank of India Board Swaminathan Gurumurthy delivered a keynote address virtually. The day ended with a talk on ‘Building for Bharat’ by President of TiE Bengaluru Madan Padaki.

Shekhar Naik made the disability of blindness not his weakness but a reason to move on and to do something unique in life. His sheer passion and determination to play cricket in his life led him to become the Captain of the Indian Blind Cricket Team and also led India to win the World Cricket Champion title in 2012.

“Blindness never held me back nor I ever felt weak or disheartened. Rather I embraced my disability with dignity and courage. I did not think about what I cannot do due to my disability but tried to focus on what I can actually do and what I want to do,” he told the audience in his address.

“Visually impaired cricketers don’t just play for money, jobs, fame or happiness. We play to gain confidence and we play to prove that a blind man can do anything. Playing cricket gives us that extra motivation and energy. I did not play cricket to earn money. That was never my aim. Only after winning the World Cup, we have started getting some financial support,”  he added.
