Student with dyslexia aces board exam; mom-teacher Suchita Pattnaik narrates son's journey

Dyslexia is a learning disorder in which there is difficulty in reading due to problems in identifying speech and sounds and figuring out how they relate to letters and words. As per Mayo Clinic, a reading disability, dyslexia is a result of individual differences in areas of the brain that process language.

However, despite being such a big health condition, very less is known about dyslexia. The knowledge around dyslexia is so little that people often interpret it as problematic. Due to limited awareness around this condition, the affected individuals are ostracized and are marred by stigmas.
