We had provided a facelift to the government-run school at the cost of Rs 27 lakh through resource mobilisation,” said Rajiv Mokal, publicity convenor for BYRT.Earlier, with no roof or proper drainage facilities, the toilets for the students were in a very bad shape and the whole area was stinking of sewage. The unsafe nature of the toilet blocks deterred parents from sending their daughters to school.“Similarly, through resource mobilisation, we had raised Rs 14 lakh for construction of 1,550 square feet classroom and play area for children of Spandan School for Mentally Challenged Children at Gotri, provided basic amenities at Sharda Mandir kindergarten school apart from providing toilet block, badminton court, cricket playground for nearly 400 students at Jaspura school,” he said.
