Give them Wings to Fly !


In our country India, where several female Goddesses are revered with a sense of respect and fear, a huge section of the society still continues to be uneducated. A major segment of girls in the rural areas, more than 75% of the total women population in 6 out of 29 states of the subcontinent are denied their basic right to education, mainly in an attempt to hinder their insight to the outer world. Despite various campaigns by Government and Non-Government organizations in the past and present that aimed at social-awareness, the mentality of the rural population of India hasn’t undergone any complete change.


The main reason for this injustice remains to be the open resistance by the old minds in the rural areas, to new ideologies, since any ideology which is not parallel to their mind set is seen as an insult and as an attempt to demean their culture. The spiritual books that are worshiped had not expressed any disapproval to girls being educated, but on the contrary has championed the cause of women education. Hence, it is clear that cultural-barriers should no longer be accepted as an escape-way for girls to be denied their right to education.

One of the best ways to make this happen is to confront them with the true outcomes of women education: the pre-eminent women achievers of the land which would definitely impart the sense of realization in their minds. This move will ensure that every girl in the nation is a learned individual, dawning the entire nation to wisdom and glory.

The Man who Transformed Girl Education

Ranjitsinh Disale, a Government School Teacher from Paritewadi, Maharashtra, had made history and made India proud. This is not because he won the 1 million USD Global Teacher Prize 2020 which brings incredible honour and glory in itself, but because in a never-before-seen instance, he decided to share half of his Rs 7.4 crore winnings with the rest of the nine finalists for the Global Teacher Prize to support their work. “The Covid-19 pandemic has exposed education and the communities it serves in a multitude of ways. But in this hard time, teachers are giving their best to make sure every student has access to their birth right of a good education," said Disale, as per PTI. Disale aspired to become an IT engineer but it didn’t turn out to be the way he wanted to that’s when his father suggested him teaching as a career. However, his experience in a teacher training college changed him as a person completely. He started off with his incredible work in Zila Parishad Primary Scho...

The Robinhood Army

In 2014, Neel Ghose and a couple of his friends spent an evening distributing excess food that they had collected from local restaurants to the under privileged living under the Hauz Khas flyover in South Delhi. Four years later in 2018, that little act of kindness form Neel and friends laid the foundation of “The Robin Hood Army”, an organization entirely supported by volunteer work that used the act of food redistribution to bring out the simplest in humanity. By the start of 2019, the Robin Hood Army was present in twelve countries, was serving over 500,000 meals per month, and had helped around 750 children enroll in public schools. All of it without raising one rupee, in line with their “golden rule” of being a zero-funds organization. The Robinhood army is now a Harvard Case study: This case explores the challenges and opportunities related to fast growth and international expansion of a start-up organization that operates with no monetary assets. The discussion of this case offe...
