About National Institute for the Visually Handicapped

The National Institute for the Empowerment of Persons with Visual Disabilities (Divyangjan) (NIEPVD) at 116, Rajpur Road, Dehradun is one of the Nine National Institutes working under the administrative control of the Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (DEPwDs), Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment, and Government of India. It was established way back in 1943 as the St Dunstan’s Hostel for the War Blinded for providing rehabilitation services to the soldiers and sailors blinded in the World War II. In 1950, the Government of India took over the St. Dunstan’s Hostel and entrusted the same to the Ministry of Education with the responsibility of developing comprehensive services for the rehabilitation of blind persons. Subsequently, services for the blind witnessed remarkable expansion. In the same year, the Government established the Training Centre for the Adult Blind to ensure reintegration of blind soldiers including other persons in the field of work. In 1951, the Government established the Central Braille Press (CBP); in 1952, the Workshop for the Manufacture of Braille Appliances (MBA); in 1954, the Sheltered Workshop; in 1957 the Training Centre for the Adult Blind Women (TCAB); in 1959, the Model School for the Visually Handicapped (MSVH) and in 1963, the National Library for the Print Handicapped (NLPH) were established.

On integration of all these units in 1967, the Government established the National Centre for the Blind (NCB). This Centre was further upgraded as the National Institute for the Visually Handicapped in 1979 and finally in October 1982, it was registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 and acquired the status of an autonomous body. The NIEPVD is undoubtedly one of the country’s prestigious institutions completing its glorious 78 years of providing rehabilitation services to the visually impaired persons.
