Manoj Kumar, an acid attack survivor, has been job hunting for years — not because he lacks skills, but because society can’t look past his scars.

This is Eyeway Rubaru, where we talk to people who have experienced late blindness in their lives to understand their journeys.

It leaves us wondering: If we claim to be an inclusive society, why do we force people like Manoj to cover their faces just to step outside? Why do we measure human worth by appearance rather than ability?

Help Manoj get a Job.
