CM launches 'Badibata' program

Chief Minister K Rosaiah on Monday launched the Badibata program at the Camp office.  About 50 children in the  city  who left the school midway  during the last couple of years were restored back to the school during this  program.

The Government is spending huge funds on Education, particularly School Education in the State. The State has also been leveraging funds from the Central schemes like Sarva Siksha Abhiyaan (SSA), Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyaan (RMSA) for increasing infrastructure like School Buildings, Compound Walls, and for recruitment of  teachers and so on. So the parents who cannot afford to send their  children  to English Medium Schools or public Schools should make the  best use of the  prevailing  opportunities, the CM felt.

As  the schools reopened today, the CM called for a  close monitoring of attendance in the schools, both of teachers and students.

With the enactment of Right to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009, it is expected that issues of drop-out, out-of-school children, quality of education and availability of trained teachers would be addressed in the short to medium term.

The Badibata program will  continue till  June  27.  District Collector Gulzar Natrajan and Rajeev Vidya Mission  Project official  Mastanaiah took part in the program.
