Bi-cycles for Tribal Girls |
| The State Government is implementing a scheme of distribution of bi-cycles to the tribal girl students from Class IX to XII in the Left Wing Extremists affected (LWE) blocks in the districts of Paschim Medinipur, Bankura and Purulia. The scheme is aimed at reducing drop out in the schools and to encourage the girl students to continue study. Besides, these bi-cycles will help their families for multipurpose house hold activities. Though objective evaluation of the scheme is yet to be done, however, prima facie it appears that the scheme has a good impact on the girl students. There is huge demand from tribal areas and also from SC dominated backward areas. |
