Admissions are on.. finally

After years of planning and a short 6 months of working on the concept of Adharshila, it is finally taking shape. Thanks to the support of friends of Adharshila - Adharshila is now ready for it's 1st batch of admissions.

The "call for admission" has received a very positive response from not only Kohra but all the villages around the area. In fact, people from the close by town have also shown intrest in wanting to join up the school.

The transparent method of enrollment has been welcomed by all. As on date close to 35 students have registered for admission.

This is how the roads are across the village. I think one can understand the reasons of exictment. Unfortunalty, only the main street is being paved at the moment. For all streets to be paved might mean few more years.


This is the new road which is being constructed across village. Please notice the drains !!

There are winds of change at Kohra

"After generations of apathy, there are sudden moves of development across the village," the villagers tell us this. It is also visible to anyone who ventures there. Two huge changes are taking place currently (and we are not suggesting that we brought about these changes, although we have been campaigning for the same with the right authorities.)

1. The main street of the village is being re-laid. And this time with RCC Concrete. The "on road" drainage has been changed to drains on the side of the road. (refer to the pics uploaded in this blog). This might appear to be simple to most folks around the world, however, for Kohra - this is the biggest thing happening this decade or more.

2. We might get electricity to the village - finally !! We are hoping that we will be successful within the next 30 days or so. SSMF met up the local officials and persuaded them to set-up a Bijli (electricity) Camp in Kohra. The camp is to be set-up on the 18th of March. We have also worked with a number of persons across the village to access the desire to have electricity in their houses.

We are hopeful that we would see this huge development taking place in the next 30 days or so. So by the time Adharshila welcomes it's 1st student, there would be light in most houses.
