Education Programme launched in 20 Remote Tribal Villages of Baran District

NGO Sankalp Society Mamoni has launched an education programme under PM E-Vidya Scheme, in 20 remote tribal villages of Distt. Baran (Raj.) with financial help under CSR by CCIL Mumbai.
The purpose of the programme is to address the knowledge gap of School Going Children of remote rural villages, providing online education for classes 1 to 12, through 12 dedicated dish TV channels for each class by the government of India.
The need for such a programme is further justified by ASER (Annual Status of Education-2022) released in January 2023.
The primary objective of the ASER survey is to generate estimates of children’s schooling status and basic learning levels at district, state, and national levels; and to measure changes in these parameters over time.

As per the report:
