Children initial journey towards school
On 3rd May under the banner of ‘Shale Kade’ Nanna Nade (My journey towards school) with the alliance of likeminded NGOs of the Raichur District and Government Education officers namely DDPI, CEO, CDPO and women and child protection and child right officer and also child welfare officers were present for the one day workshop was held at Girls PU Collage, Raichur. Thus Vimukti created a platform in order to bring all the concerned District authority people to this programme. After the official inauguration of the workshop, Vimukti presented the in-depth study survey report of those children who were staying out of school in the entire taluka of manvi. It was a hard reality to accept that more than 4950 children were not attending school in the manvi taluka itself, leaving rest of the talukas of the District. It was evident that though the children were not attending the school, it was being shown in the records that they were attending schools in order to indicate that the number of children absent in the school were minimum.

Even other NGOs opinions were similar that despite of several schemes and opportunities being given by the government for the education, the number of children staying out of school was comparingly high in the district. During interaction many raised their issues in this regard and down to the earth suggestions were given in order to decrease the number of child dropouts, child marriages, child labour in order to bring all the children to school. Nearly 85 beneficiaries attended and benefited from the workshop.
