FREE Quality Education for the Visually Challenged
Short video about our Organisations and Students.
Voted as 'Best School' in India for the visually challenged by
'National Association for the Blind' (NAB)
More than 12 million people in India who are blind are dependant on some one. But our students don’t depend on any. Our JET Nethra Vidyalaya established under the guidance of Sri Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji, the students are becoming all-rounders in all fields and leading a confident life.
Their fingers have eyes…
Their ears have vision…
Their hearts have courage…
Their lives are full of zeal…
They are deprived of physical vision
Yet, their vision is fair and realistic.
Let’s encourage them!
