The Evening Pathasala Project, initiated by the District Administration Rupnagar, aims to provide quality education to underprivileged children who have limited access to formal schooling. This project focuses on delivering educational support during the evening hours, making it accessible to students who may be engaged in other activities during the day. The initiative seeks to bridge the educational gap and ensure that every child has the opportunity to learn and thrive academically.

The Evening Pathasala Project operates in various locations across the district, including near Gausala Slum, near Sadabrat Slum, and near IIT Ropar Slum, where we have successfully enrolled more than 67 students back into school. The project started in January 2024 and is currently ongoing. It utilizes community centers, schools, and other local venues to conduct classes. Experienced teachers and volunteers provide instruction in core subjects such as mathematics, science, languages, and social studies. Additionally, the program incorporates extracurricular activities, including arts, sports, and life skills training, to foster holistic development.

A key component of the project is its emphasis on inclusivity and accessibility efforts are made to reach out to marginalized communities, ensuring that children from all backgrounds can benefit from the program. The project also collaborates with local organizations like district Red Cross and stakeholders to mobilize resources and create a supportive learning environment.

By empowering children with education, the Evening Pathasala Project aims to uplift communities, reduce dropout rates, and pave the way for a brighter future for the youth of Rupnagar.
