The seventeenth version of ‘Shala Praveshotsav’, an annual drive to enroll college students at school one in Gujarat, is scheduled to be launched by Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel on June 23. The programme can be launched from a government-run major college in Banaskantha’s Vadgam taluka.
According to officers, it has been determined to ship vice chancellors of assorted state universities to villages as a part of the three-day college enrollment drive being held between June 23 and 25, state Education Minister Jitu Vaghani stated on Monday.
“As many as 356 class I officers, including 84 IAS and 24 IPS officials, along with state ministers, MLAs and MPs will remain present in government-run primary schools across the state to encourage newly inducted students during these three days,” the minister stated.
According to Vaghani, the ‘Shala Praveshotsav’ was began by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2003 when he was the state’s CM, with the principle intention being making certain most enrollment in faculties. “On the second day of the drive, the CM will be present in a school in Nizar taluka of Tapi district to enroll students in a primary school. Officials and elected representatives would cover nearly 32,000 government primary schools during this three-day drive,” Vaghani instructed reporters.
These officers and elected representatives may even participate in taluka-level evaluation conferences each night, whereas separate conferences can be held with academics to debate points pertaining to studying loss, attendance and infrastructure requirement, Vaghani knowledgeable.
“Gujarat’s dropout ration was 64.48 per cent in 1990-91. Thanks to this drive, that ratio came down to just 3.7 per cent in 2020-21. Similarly, the gross enrollment ratio has gone up to 99.02 in 2020-21 from 95.65 per cent in 2004-05,” stated Vaghani.
