Hello Mohit Chess: BRA and NAB Delhi have well-coordinated and structured efforts to develop chess playing skills. Other institutions too are making such efforts that I am not directly connected with. North Zone competition is expected to take place in October this year in Delhi.
Sports: IBSA and BRA take lead here and have several sporting activities for persons with blindness. Online national library is Sugamya Pustakalaya.
