When it started a Bachelors in applied sign language, Indira Gandhi National Open University didn’t anticipate the demand. Applications poured in from India and abroad. “We haven’t been able to accommodate even 1 per cent,” says PR Ramanujam, director of Ignou’s Staff Training and Research Institute of Distance Education.
