In this photograph taken on November 7, 2019, 44-year-old blind man Vinod Kumar Sharma walks under a flyover on his way back home after massage practice at the Blind Relief Association in New Delhi. - Tapping his white cane, Vinod Kumar Sharma spends four hours a day running the gauntlet of crowded trains and New Delhi's congested, potholed and often pavement-less roads. Sharma is one of an estimated eight million blind people in India who make up 20 percent of the global total, according to the World Health Organization.
