New, spacious anganwadi facility set up at Doddinduvadi village
Mysuru: Anganwadi children of Doddinduvadi, who benefited from Montessori-based English medium education, have a new and spacious facility. Thanks to CSR funds, an NGO working to impart English medium education to rural children has created a new facility at their village, which is located in Chamarajanagar district. The new anganwadi has addressed the challenge of accommodating all the children in the village, located about 75 km away from Mysuru. The earlier facility was too small to accommodate them all. Chamarajanagar zilla panchayat chief executive officer Mona Roat, who inaugurated the new anganwadi centre in Doddinduvadi village on Thursday, encouraged parents to fully utilise this premium educational opportunity provided to their children at their doorsteps. Amyga Foundation, with CSR support from Walvoil Fluid Power India Private Limited, constructed the facility. Lakshmi Ramamurthy, Amyga Foundation's managing trustee, told TOI that they have been working together with the department of women and child development since 2019, offering free Montessori-based English medium education. She claimed that their foundation serves approximately 600 anganwadi children across India, with 250 children in Karnataka. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Switch to UnionBank Rewards Card UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo The foundation utilises Montessori materials and qualified teachers to deliver education at no cost.
