Feel the Nature

On 2nd Feb 2014 , we went on trek to Tikona fort.  There were around 150 members in our group. Green lofty-curvy mountains, awesome view of water stored in a dam, magnificent trees and mesmerizing surroundings is all that we could feel, hear , touch and taste but alas we could not see any of these we  only visualized it in our hearts and minds, out of 150 members, we were being accompanied by 120 visually challenged friends from NIWANT ANDH MUKTA VIKASALAY. Unique trek of its kind where volunteers were overwhelmed and so were the participants. Everyone wanted to make it a point that being visually challenged doesn’t mean people can’t scale the heights. Not even a single bruise to anyone proved its not eyes which are required to see but it’s the vision and will that guides you in right direction.
