Visually impaired 7-year-old  Muslim girl knows Bhagavad Gita by heart
Zehra, a Muslim by religion does not mind paying to any God and says she likes to pray and read the holy scriptures like Quran and Gita.

A student of class III girl, Zehra studies at Brij Mohan School for the Blind in Meerut's Jagriti Vihar in the State of Uttar Pradesh,India

Her parents and siblings live in Lohia Nagar, where she goes during her summer break, and in festivals.
She was admitted to the blind school by her father when she was three-years-old.

A Gita recitation competition in 2015 persuaded Zehra's teacher Praveen Sharma to help these kids in achieving something.

Thus, he started preparing the students for the competition, in which Zehra outshined as she was a quick learner.

The school has 30 students and five teachers. Two of the teachers are visually impaired.

Zehra wants to study and teach others like her, who cannot see, so that they can have a "vision for life" through education.
