   Objectives
 


In the year 1997, Project Krushi started seven schools in Hyderabad slums, in association with Balajyothi, a Central Government Programme, working for eradication of child labour. Besides providing basic education to children in the slums, who otherwise had no access to schools, Project Krushi concentrated on the all round development of the children. The success story of these schools is evident from the fact that the State Government has taken over these schools in the year 2001.

Exposure to the Krushi-Balajyothi Schools, has given Project Krushi an insight into the shortcomings in the Government Schools and it was felt that support to the Government schools would help in taking quality education to a large number of children living in urban slums. Towards this end, support to six Government Primary schools was extended in the year 2002-03, by providing them with teaching / learning material, arranging for better accommodation, providing para teachers, ayahs etc., based on the need of each school.

During the year 2002, Project Krushi came across a locality, generally known as Pardhi Basti, in Balanagar area of Hyderabad. This slum is exclusively inhabited by the Pardhi community, whose traditional occupation is illicit brewing, selling flowers, petty crimes etc., with no exposure to any education. When the community elders were approached, they showed keen interest in educating their children, but were helpless due to their own ignorance as well as poverty. With their concurrence an existing dilapidated building was renovated, at a cost of about Rs. 0.200 mil., with the financial assistance from another voluntary Organization from The Netherlands, Friends Indeed and converted it into a Primary school, which now has a strength of 110.
