The objective of Vidyanjali 2.0 Portal:
The main objective of the Vidyanjali 2.0 Portal is to strengthen the schools through community and private sector involvement. This initiative connects the varied volunteers like professionals, school alumni, inservice and retired teachers, etc. to the schools. The volunteers can connect with the schools in two forms. First, through participating in school service and activities and through supporting Government and government-aided schools through assets or materials or equipment, which will strengthen the infrastructure of the Government schools. Other than that the volunteers can share their knowledge and skills which will help students in their career choices. This scheme will also improve the standard of education which will ultimately improve the employment rate. The volunteers are required to conduct themselves professionally in their relationship.”
