Nayanika is a simple, self-dependent blind girl. She has lost her vision and also her father in an accident. From that time her mother has bed-ridden. But Nayanika has not lost her mental strength. She tried her best to support her sick mother and to balance the economic condition of the family. But now-a-days the neighbours are gossiping something about her behaviour. Last few months she has found to be associated with some unknown persons who get her back home at late night that is very unusual for her. So two young reporters Abhi and Guddu of her locality followed her and got Nayanika and her suspicious friends in a red-light-area. But after some time they revealed that they were so wrong. They found that she is involved in a social activity with the children of this area. And they realised if the blind people like Nayanika get back their vision these can build up a better world.

Antardrishti – a social development organisation is committed to the cause of blind people in our society. Towards this we had made a humble beginning in 2006. It is registered as a Public Charitable Trust under Indian Trust Act, 1882. In our country, after the so long time after Independence still people are suffering from blindness due to lack of proper information and treatment. In similar way the person who becomes blind or losses his eyesight is not able to connect himself with the main stream of society due to lack of proper information and encouragement. Antardrishti stand with #Eye Care, #Eye Donation and Empowerment of #Visually Impaired.
Need of the hour is to raise awareness level of the society towards eye care, eye donation and empowerment of blind people.
