Rising Star Khilte Chehre (RSKC) is prominently showcased as a global trailblazer at the International Purple Fest in Goa, standing out as the world's only structured group-travel initiative for blind and visually impaired travellers.
As an exhibitor and active participant, RSKC represents a powerful shift in disability inclusion — moving the conversation from basic accessibility to real-world participation, leadership and global accessible journeys.
Voices from Purple Fest
At Purple Fest, RSKC did not present inclusion as a theory. It represented a living model where blind citizens step out, navigate large public spaces, participate with confidence and experience the world with dignity and community support.
RSKC's presence alongside sector leaders, innovators, organisations and inclusion-focused institutions strengthened its position as a pioneering non-profit working at the intersection of accessibility, mobility, confidence-building and lived experience.
“Blind citizens are not to be seen through pity or limitation, but as travellers, leaders, explorers and active participants in society.”
— RSKC, International Purple Fest Goa
The festival became a meaningful platform for RSKC to strengthen its larger message: blind citizens are travellers, leaders, explorers and active participants in society. From India to international journeys, RSKC continues to build a movement that empowers blind citizens through accessible journeys, real-world exposure and confidence-building experiences.
