EDUCATING INDIA From my personal experience during the last 5 years, of teaching thousands of poorest of the poor children, particularly beggars, rag pickers and slum children, without any infrastructure, only with the support of a handful people, I have learnt that providing basic education (say up to 5th standard) to each and every poor child of India is not an impossible goal to achieve; only if some people join hand together. We can assure basic education to each and every poor child of India. We can take up this project as our social responsibility to EDUCATE INDIA. To provide basic education (say up to 5th standard) to 25 poor children (please note its only for the POOR) only one or two standardized books, published by NCERT, copies, pencils, erasers, one black board, some drawing material and a dedicated teacher is required. No building is required. They can be taught in open parks, in the temples, gurdwaras, on your rooftops etc. The total expenditure on 25 children, including salary of a teacher does not exceed Rs 10,000 a month. Any well to do person can afford to teach 25 children on his own. He can motivate his business or other associates to follow him. If I can arrange to teach a thousand children, just with the help of 3 or 4 people, why can't you do it just for 25 children? Please employ just one graduate girl and motivate her to enroll 25 children, pay her Rs 100 per child per month as honorarium and give stationery from your side. Your social project will start. We are there to provide you all the guidance. You can reach me at premgarg@yahoo.com. There can't be a better deed in the world, than to educate a child. GOD will surely bless you. You can share my thoughts with others to motivate them to join this noble cause. Please note that Good population in human society is the basic principle for peace, prosperity and spiritual progress in life. The temples in India, along with a pujari, should employ a teacher, who can teach, the begging children at the temple premises itself. The temple can easily provide eatables to such children out of the parshad offered by devotees. Our temples have become the breeding ground for beggars and it's the right time for us to convert these temples to temples of learning for the deprived children and put the temples to better utilization. Imagine if every temple starts providing basic education to only 30 to 40 begging children, will there be any beggar child left. Two years back We employed a teacher at Mansa Devi Mandir complex to teach the beggars at the doorsteps of the temple itself but theImagine if every temple starts providing basic education to 30 or 40 begging children, will there be any beggar child left. Two years back we employed a teacher at Mansa Devi Mandir complex to teach the beggars at the door steps of temple itself, but the Secretary threw the teacher out. They can allow the children to beg at the temple but not study at the same place. |
