Students Account by Punjab National Bank
Students Account by Punjab National Bank.
Recently I came to know about a very nice initiative started by DelhiGoverment. Under this scheme students are given Accounts with Punjab National Bank. Here students are given the facility of withdrawing money directly from ATMs , here no third party distribution is existing , directly the accounts are created under the name of the student.
Say a small amount (Rs500,Rs700 or Rs1500) are given to students at various stages of thier studies.
As I got to meet the students of Sarvodaya Vidyalaya, Sharda Niketan, Delhi-34 and they seems to be happy happy about this small contribution given by Delhi Goverment.
I also discovered few students are going to school just to get these benefits. They use this money to sponsor thier travel and other study related expenses.
This seems to be too little but I strongly believe that “A little progress everyday leads up to big results”.
The school which I mentioned above happens to be the place where I have spend 10 yrs of my life as I have done my primary Eductions from here.
I heared about other initiative like “LADLLI” where Girl child (student) gets a fixed deposit of Rs 100000 and they wil be given this amount once they get Adult(18yrs) for thier further studies.
I think Delhi Goverment is doing a good job for education.
Thanks to modern banking system and Public Distribution Systems Idea.
I hope other other Goverment Funds will find the some good utilization like this.Instead of filling the pockets of crrupt politicians.
After I heared a lot about scam @ Common Wealth Games in Delhi
this FACT really relaxed my soul a lot, I was asked by lots of people outside Delhi about the rising graph of corruption in delhi.
I think this is enough for time being 
Jai Ho!
