35,000+ clubs of Rotary are working together on significant issues such as promoting peace, fighting conflict, providing clean water, sanitation and hygiene, protecting mothers and children & much more. ImageImageImageImage
#Literacy is a catalyst for development, which enables a person not only to get proper economic, political and social benefits but also to contribute to national and international development.
Under #NEP2020, we aim to achieve 100% Gross Enrolment Ratio in preschool to secondary level by 2030. To help achieve this goal, we have recently started a new program 'Padhna Likhna Abhiyan' a scheme for #adult education.
The main aim of the scheme is to provide functional literacy to illiterate and digitally literate 57 lakh adults aged 15 years and above in both rural and urban areas across the country.
Under #SamagraShiksha, the Ministry of Education has launched #NISHTHA which aims to update the skills and knowledge of 42 lakh teachers in the States and UTs.
We have also taken several initiatives towards the promotion and digitization of e-learning for learners of schools, colleges and universities such as SWAYAM, Swayam Prabha, ePathshala, NROER, PM e-Vidya, DIKSHA, etc.
Vidyadan 2.0, a joint initiative of @Rotary and @ncert, is also a commendable step in which Rotary International will provide e-content in Hindi language to NCERT for all subjects from class 1 to 12. Certainly, this high-quality reading material will greatly benefit our children. ImageImageImage
I urge people to unite & diligently work towards making our glorious nation ‘साक्षर भारत - आत्मनिर्भर भारत'.

Ease of Governance and ease of doing business has been the motto of the present government. To action, our moto, PRABANDH system was launched last year to help conduct the PAB meetings to approve annual plans of states under the Samagra Shiksha scheme. (1/5)
It has enabled states to upload plans and everyone to view and appraise it from remote/own locations with automatic compilation by the system, resulting in consolidated recommendations and cost sheets.
This was unimaginable in physical mode. (2/5)

An amount of INR 7622 crore has been released so far in 2021-22 to states and UTs under the Samagra Shiksha scheme for continuity of various initiatives such as free textbooks and uniforms, running of KGBVs, teaching, vocational education, ICT and digital initiatives. (3/5)

I thank all the Hon'ble Chief Ministers, Education Ministers, and officers associated with the world's largest education system for participating in the high-level meeting chaired by Hon'ble Minister of Defence Shri @rajnathsingh Ji.
As envisioned by the Hon'ble PM, the meeting was extremely fruitful as we received immensely valuable suggestions. I have requested the State Governments to send me their detailed suggestions by 25th May.
I'm confident we will be able to arrive at an informed, collaborative decision regarding the Class 12th board exams and remove the uncertainty among student's and parent's minds by informing them of our final decision at the earliest.

I want to appreciate the positive thinking and positive reactions given by the institutes during this crucial time. It is an effort led by the Institutes of National Importance which will help in creating a positive sentiment in the society. Image
From the development of ‘Corosure’ testing kits, ‘COVIRAP’ for diagnostics to the development of oxygen concentrators and low-cost RT-PCR machines, it is notable to mention that many of the research products have been commercialised through the Incubation Cells and Startups. Image
