The Calling... Bhoomi Pujan of New School Project at Parshuramdwara, Jaipur

The Ist calling... 16th September 2006

First time,Tr.Pushpendra Bhargava and me were taken by JEn Mr. Kulsherstha to a 'D' category school in urgent and dire need of repair and new classrooms at a place known as "Parshuramdwara School"...

What struck us both at very moment we stopped outside the premises of theschool was "Hey, we live in Jaipur, feel proud of its heritage and beauty and here lies a very old structure in shambles and no to take care and restore it to its original grandeur..."

If in some way we can do little restoration this place can become a real experience for little children to read, write and learn in...

2nd calling... 3 January 2007

Our current chairman Tr.Lalit showed us a list of schools identified and surveyed by CII(Confederation Indian Industries). We short listed 5/6 schools we could take up for our next school project. From all the listed school numbers there was 1 school we were very curious and intrigued by and that was school no#171 - Upper Primary School at Parshuramdwara... Quite a unique coincidence as we are ROUND TABLE NO. 171 !!!

On 3rd January 07, I, Tr. Lalit, Tr. Tarun and Tr. Pushpendra went to this school and met the principal/head master and proposed our willingness to make New Classrooms in this school.

3rd and final calling... 22nd April 2207

At 3 PM on 22nd April 2007 the time did arrive we all were waiting for...

We laid our 1st Foundation stone of our dream school building...

We were all smiles...

After the ground breaking ceremony and laying the foundation stone, our vice chairman Tr. Tarun invited and welcomed the guests and fellow tablers from Jaipur and outside, the School Semiti members, the school teachers and children. RTI President Tr. Shiv gave a small Introduction of Round Table India, the movement, its purpose and vision. Our very own Area 5 chairman Tr. Rajeev urf Billu gave a very inspiring speech for kids. It was followed by a few words by Our Chief Guest Shri. Mahant Maharaj Maheshji and the HM of Parshuramdwara School. Our Chairman Tr. Lalit gave a vote of thanks to all for their cooperation and support.

To complete the celebration, all the school children present were distributed snacks and ladoos but what put a real smile on each one of their faces was the gift of Pencil Box with some stationary....

So keeping our sunny side up and blessing of the Al Mighty as we embark upon on our calling...

To build the much need classrooms at Parshuramdwara School...

Amen!!

Biggest Ever School Project At Jaipur

We had proposed to the Government of Rajasthan to build a school of 18 classrooms (3 floors) at Parsuramdwara, Jaipur. This would be done in 3 phases, with 1st phase being for 8 classrooms.

The Government Of Rajasthan will contribute Rs. 1.5 lacs per classroom and we would put in the rest. We have submitted all plans and estimates etc. to the Government and have gotten their written permission to go ahead.

This project will be a showpiece project and all of us should be proud to be involved in its execution.
