Efforts of only the Government cannot ensure any campaign's success. Community participation is also necessary. Keeping this in view, people from intelligentsia have been associated with "School Chale Hum Abhiyan".
The Government has urged people that they can become motivators for the campaign by just giving a missed call. The process of missed calls began from May 29 on phone number 0755-2570000. As a result, 2 lakh 80 thousand motivators have joined the campaign till June 16. To encourage them, the Chief Minister personally thanked all those who joined the campaign by giving missed call.
For giving a new height to the campaign and sending its message throughout the country, Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan is also associating President Pranab Mukherjee with the campaign on June 28. The President will attend a major programme under "School Chale Hum Abhiyan" on June 28 at Indore.
After launch at Bhopal, the Chief Minister has given fillip to the School Chale Hum campaign in 10 districts so far including Jabalpur, Shivpuri, Sheopur, Khandwa, Harda, Katni, Panna, Hoshangabad, Balaghat and Narsinghpur. At Panna, he lauded the work of getting admitted to schools 178 children belonging to nomadic and Pardhi tribes. He said that success of the campaign depends on such efforts. Chief Minister's campaigns at the district level will continue unabated.
The Chief Minister has taken another important initiative for campaign's success. Vidyalaya Uphar Yojana has been launched to ensure that schools' environs become good, all resources are available there and children are motivated to engage in studies. Under the scheme, any person, institution, group or trust can gift away necessary material of its choice to any school. Such persons and institutions will be given certificates of commendation and their names will be displayed on education portal.
On the occasion of Pravesh Utsav every student was provided free books, 2 pairs of uniform, cheques to purchase cycle as per eligibility.
