“Louis Braille is a truly inspiring example for all those who refuse to succumb to their limitations and are determined to achieve their goals. His invention – the Braille system – is an incomparable gift to the visually-challenged individuals. The six-dots of Louis Braille are the precious seeds from which intellectual harvest grows. We are indebted to Louis Braille as he led the visually-challenged to the light of knowledge and education. I am pleased with the foresightedness of AOF by presenting us these special booklets, said Vinod Chadha, Honorary Secretary, NAB Ludhiana & Chandigarh.
