- Ghamandi’s children received school and caste certificates in the village itself.
In Narayanpur, an aspirational district of Chhattisgarh, the “School Keinta” campaign, run under the guidance of the Collector, is awakening a new awareness of education in remote and inaccessible forest areas. This innovative initiative not only provides children with access to education, but also secures their future by connecting them with essential government documents.
- Caste certificates were
recently distributed to 22 children enrolled in the optional primary school in Ghamandi village, which falls under the Garpa cluster center. This will enable the children and their parents to access government schemes and further educational opportunities without any obstacles.
- Relief from the arduous 10-kilometer trek
Previously, children from Ghamandi village had to walk 10 kilometers to Kodenar for primary education. Due to the rough and difficult roads, children were unable to attend school regularly. The district administration has provided a permanent solution to this problem by opening an alternative primary school in the village. Thirty children are currently studying in this school, where local “education ambassador” Kosa Ram Vadde is dedicatedly serving.
- “So far, more than 2,000 children have been successfully enrolled and connected to education.”
It is worth noting that under the “School Keinta” campaign, 34 new alternative schools were started to provide education in remote and geographically isolated areas. Through this campaign, more than 2,000 children have been successfully enrolled and connected to education. Not only education, but caste certificates and other necessary documents are also being prepared and distributed locally. This step by the district administration proves that with the right intentions and efforts, children’s dreams can be fulfilled even amidst dense forests and inaccessible hills.
