In the busy streets of Raipur, there is a cafe serving steaming cups of tea but in a very special way.
'Tapri' is a cafe which is promoting sign language by employing hearing- and speech-impaired individuals.
Founded by Irrfan, almost four years back, Tapri intends to serve the society at large. The cafe aims to not provide a unique cafe experience, but to also sensitize fully-abled people to the challenges of being a hearing or speech impaired person.
Inspired by Prime Minister, Narendra Modi's Startup India, Irrfan after completing B.Com from from Raipur, Irrfan invested all his savings to start this special cafe.
Apart from being a normal cafe, the place also organise book reading session, poetry sessions and much more. The owner himself learned the sign language from YouTube and helped the workers to interact with the customers.
'Tapri' is becoming one of the popular cafes among youth in Raipur.
