Brajkishore Netraheen Balika Vidyalaya
is a non-profit residential school for visually impaired girls, located in Ranchi, Jharkhand.

Our Mission

Established in 1989 and administered by the Brajkishore Public Educational Society, the school has spent over three decades creating inclusive educational and vocational opportunities for students from tribal and low-income communities across the state. Our mission is to empower visually impaired girls to lead independent, dignified, and fulfilling lives. We provide free education from kindergarten through Class 12, as well as undergraduate programs, following the curriculum of the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) and Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU). Students receive holistic training through explorations in music, drama, dance, and painting - earning recognition and awards at various state-level events. To enhance future employment prospects, we offer computer literacy and call centre training. Since 2016, our students have operated Northern India’s only call centre run entirely by visually impaired girls, serving prominent clients such as Vodafone, CMPDI, and NCL. At Brajkishore Netraheen Balika Vidyalaya, education is about confidence, creativity, and career-readiness. Through a holistic approach, we strive to open doors for our students and reshape societal perceptions of disability and girlhood.

A Message from our Founder

Neelu Verma

Founder Chairperson

Brajkishore Public Education Society

Dear friends and well-wishers,

Brajkishore Netraheen Balika Vidyalaya began as a small dream—to give blind girls from underserved communities a chance to live with dignity, independence, and joy. Over the past 34 years, that dream has grown into a vibrant institution where students not only learn, but thrive.

Throughout India, facilities for the visually impaired remain scarce, especially for girls. Our school was born out of the urgent need to address this gap, and today we are proud to see our students excelling not just in academics, but also in the arts, technology, and professional training.

Whether it’s winning awards at Raj Bhavan or running a call centre for major clients, our girls constantly challenge expectations and inspire us with their determination.

This journey wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of our patrons, partners, and community. Your contributions go directly toward education, skills training, and the creation of life-changing opportunities.

Thank you for believing in our mission.

Warm regards,

Neelu Verma

We're expanding!

At Brajkishore Netraheen Balika Vidyalaya, we believe every girl deserves access to quality education and a nurturing environment, no matter her circumstances.

That’s why we’re thrilled to share that we are doubling our school’s capacity this year. With upgraded residential facilities and expanded classrooms, we will soon be able to welcome twice as many blind and visually impaired girls into our academic and vocational programs.
