hi friends, i am happy to inform you that the tamilnadu based visually challenged organisations had approached the state government to seek the central government grant for their institution and in turn the state government had examined the proposals of the different institutions and through a high level committee "Grant In Aid" recommended a total of 1 crore 37 lakhs and odd for 7 institutions working in tamilnadu. i appeal to all visually challenged organisations to apply and utilise this valuable assistance for the wellbeing of the visually challenged community in the coming years. details are given below
