The latest contribution from Divi’s Laboratories will further strengthen this technology-enabled learning environment and help students develop the digital skills required for higher education and employment.

HH Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji Inaugurates the Initiative

The programme commenced with the Divi’s Laboratories CSR delegation receiving the Mangalasasanams of HH Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji. Swamiji formally inaugurated the initiative by powering on one of the newly donated laptops and presenting it to the students.

During his interaction with the students, Swamiji took keen interest in their coursework, the new technologies they are learning, including web development, and the assistive technologies they use in their daily education.

The students also demonstrated their use of NVDA with Hear2Read, enabling screen-based access to content in both English and Telugu.

Swamiji encouraged the students to make full use of the advanced technology available to them and to continuously develop their academic, technical and professional capabilities.

Since 2015, Divi’s Laboratories has supported Nethra Vidyalaya through technology and infrastructure initiatives, including the contribution of 100+ laptops and 50+ JAWS-enabled computing systems.

Formal Handover by the Divi’s CSR Team

Following the interaction with HH Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji, representatives of the Divi’s Laboratories CSR team visited the Nethra Vidyalaya campus and formally handed over the laptops to the students.

Sriman G. Nagesh Garu, CSR Manager, Divi’s Laboratories, and Sriman S. Sai Krishna Garu, CSR Team Member, participated in the programme and interacted with the students.

The handover marked another important milestone in the continuing partnership between Divi’s Laboratories and Nethra Vidyalaya, reinforcing the role that responsible corporate participation can play in advancing accessibility and inclusive education.

Technology That Creates Opportunity

The contribution is aligned with the broader philosophy of Divi’s Laboratories and its Founder & Managing Director, Dr. Murali K. Divi, whose vision emphasizes the importance of investing in technology, staying close to science, creating opportunities for people to learn and contribute, and building enduring relationships.

The 50 laptops will serve as important instruments in the students’ educational journey, helping them move closer to their aspirations with greater confidence and independence.

A Commitment to Inclusive Education

The management, staff and students of Nethra Vidyalaya express their heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Murali K. Divi, the leadership of Divi’s Laboratories, and the entire Divi’s CSR team for their continued support and commitment to inclusive education.

Nethra Vidyalaya, founded by HH Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji, provides free, holistic education to visually impaired children — empowering them to live with dignity and self-reliance. Swamiji’s constant aspiration is to empower every student to become self-reliant and lead a life of dignity, without dependence on others. 

Our students write exams on laptops, have marched in NCC Parades before the Governor, and shine in sports, athletics, and cultural events — embodying Swamiji’s vision of true independence.

These achievements reflect the dedication of our students, the guidance of Swamiji, and the generous support of our donors and volunteers.
