Education plays a significant role in development of the young generations. We feel that proper and ideal infrastructure is required for improving the learning skills and growth of the students. With this in mind, we identified and focused our CSR programme during FY 2015-16 on reviving two government schools running in the vicinity of our factory area at Budge Budge, Kolkata as enumerated below:
| NAME | MANUEL GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL | BADEKALINAGAR MUNICIPAL FREE PRIMARY SCHOOL |
|---|---|---|
| Level | Secondary school Upto 10th standard | Primary school Upto 4th standard |
| Students | 400 children | 200 children |
| Reason for selecting this school | The school building itself and the classrooms in particular were damaged and in a dilapidated condition. There was inadequate equipment in the computer room and very few books and storage space in the library. |
The school building was in a rundown condition. The classrooms and the toilets were in a deplorable state. |

We are priviledged that the company’s above initiatives have benefited more than 600 local children. The students are very happy and take pride in their school. Our efforts to revive the government schools were acknowledged by the local authorities who highly appreciated the same.
