I was lucky enough to be a part of the NER sponsored Kalimpong Project.
On visiting several schools there I observed the following things:
-Satish Kumar
- The children there have to work very hard to get education.
- It is very difficult for the children and adults there to arrange stationery material and books.
- The number of schools in this area is very less. Moreover the present schools are in a very poor condition without a proper building, light arrangement, furniture, books, etc. Children have to travel for hours to reach their schools.
- There is no electricity supply or mobile network. They don’t have any knowledge about computer. Some social organizations and NGOs help these institutes because of which they are sustaining.
- There are no arrangements for purified drinking water because of which they are affected by a number of water borne diseases.
- There are no hospitals or doctors in many villages because of which the villagers have to travel for 4-5 hours to reach hospitals.
-Satish Kumar
