Education
related social activities
Education is a fundamental
right for every citizen of Indian, but
is not available to most of rural Indian
mainly due to poverty. There lies vast
hidden talent in rural Indians which
is so far undiscovered. While the records
show 40 per cent of all Indians are
illiterate, but in reality it is more
than 50 per cent. Due to illiteracy
rural Indians are being exploited in
many ways. Godavari Biorefineries Ltd.
is working for real social change by

Education
activities in Madabhavi village:
We have adopted a village called Madbhavi
in Mudhol taluka for its overall development
with most emphasis given to education.
Before we took up educational activities,
student's attendance in primary school
was about 65-70 percent and within a
span of 4-5 months there is almost 100
percent attendance.
This was done by re enrollment of school
dropouts through home visits and counseling
to the parents. Earlier the school was
only up to the 7th standard, now it
is has been upgraded up to 10th class.
There was a shortage of classrooms as
well as teachers within the school and
with our continuous efforts with the
district government officials the number
of classrooms has increased from 6 to
10 and separate toilet facilities for
girls and boys and an open-air theater
have been provided. The teacher strength
has also been raised from 4 to 9.
General knowledge tests, essay competitions
and science quizzes are now conducted
at least once in two months. Due to
these test the students have developed
their knowledge and last year 15 students
received admission for JSS Maha Vidypeeth's
residential School, Mysore for 6th,
8th and I PUC class.
