On Tuesday, Shiksha Rath, a prominent non-profit organisation dedicated to spreading awareness about the significance of educating girls, conducted a Shiksha Rath in Sahason village of Bahadurpur development block in Prayagraj. Their dedication to this cause is truly inspiring.
The Shiksha Rath, a vehicle outfitted with posters and banners, is intended to raise awareness about the benefits of educating females in rural communities. The Shiksha Rath, part of the Educate Girls' enrolment campaign, was organised to urge parents to enrol their daughters in school. The program, a result of our collaborative efforts with the village chief, educational institutions, and volunteers, made a significant impact. It sparked an interest in Education among village inhabitants through carefully organised street plays, awareness rallies, talks, and participatory demonstrations, showing the power of collective action.
Block education officer Rakesh Yadav said, “Education is the foundation of progress of any society. The purpose of Shiksha Rath is to spread the message of Education to everyone in the village and motivate children to go to school. The Shiksha Rath campaign by Educate Girls does commendable work. I am sure that with this effort, more and more girls will enrol in schools.”
Highlighting the organisation's efforts in collaboration with the district administration and the district education centre, the state operations head of Educate Girls, Nitin Kumar Jha, said, "Educate Girls is creating awareness in all communities in the village about the importance of enrolling girls in schools . We hope to be able to enrol as many girls in school this year as possible ."
