Manas Harith Swaroopa

Enrolment No. : 45001192003

Diagnosed with Aspergers syndrome, a learning disorder thataffects an individual’s ability to communicate and socializeproperly, Manas Harith Swaroopa scored an extremelyimpressive score of 97% in Economics in his class X exams.The NIOS, where Manas was enrolled for class X made iteasier for a person like him with learning difficulties to copewith his studies and graduate along with his peers withequivalent grades.

Calling it a boon for children like her son, Manas’s mother feelsthat the NIOS initiative enables children from diverse backgrounds,different physical and mental disabilities and various levels ofexcellence in extra-curricular activities to take part in the educationprocess.
