Finding opportunities of training and employment
Twenty-three-year-old Amit Bhise was born sighted to a low income family in Sangli district of Maharashtra. When he was two, he developed a high fever and was given an overdose of injections for the same. Soon after, Amit lost his eyesight.
While Amit’s siblings went to school, he stayed trapped in the confines of his home. His parents had no awareness for education of a blind child. It was only when Amit turned 11, that a survey was conducted by a local special school for the blind. The surveyors were identifying blind students in the vicinity in order to enroll them.
