In a world where success is often measured by what we see, some stories remind us that true vision lies within.
Meet Vardan Ashtikar, an extraordinary 18-year-old whose eyes may not perceive the world, but whose mind illuminates it with brilliance. 100% blind, yet remarkably undeterred, Vardan dared to dream — and in doing so, scored a staggering 95% in his 10th board exams.
Yes, 95%.
Not despite his disability, but in defiance of it.
What fuels such an achievement?
Beyond intelligence and effort, it was also the quiet power of access.
Thanks to Voice of SAP, Vardan received a Samsung M04 smartphone—a seemingly simple device, but for Vardan, it became his lifeline to learning.
This smartphone transformed into:
📘 A digital library for textbooks
📱 A channel to connect with teachers and mentors
🧠 A tool for self-study, discipline, and discovery
He no longer had to wait for someone to read to him.
He didn’t need to rely on others to understand the syllabus.
He took control.
And that control turned into confidence. That confidence became achievement.
What Vardan shows us is powerful: when given the right tools and equal opportunities, disability is not a limitation — it’s simply a different way of navigating the world.
At VOSAP, we believe in unlocking potential by providing the right assistive technology at the right time. Vardan’s journey is one of many — but it shines especially bright as a reminder that empowerment begins with access.
His story is not only a celebration of academic excellence, but of courage, resourcefulness, and hope. And he’s just getting started — excited to use his phone as he continues his educational journey toward an even brighter future.
💡 Let Vardan’s success inspire us all!
Let’s create a world where every student, regardless of ability, is equipped to soar.
Let’s empower more minds like Vardan’s —
because when given a chance, they don’t just pass… they excel.
