Reinforcing its commitment to education and community development, Tata Chemicals Society for Rural Development (TCSRD) is supporting Shala Praveshotsav 2026 across Okhamandal from June 23 to 25.

The annual enrolment drive, organised by the Government of Gujarat and District Administration, welcomes children into Class 1, Balvatika, and Anganwadi centres.

TCSRD will distribute school bags and educational kits to newly enrolled students in government schools across the Okhamandal block. The initiative is expected to benefit 2,534 students.

Employees from over 20 Tata Chemicals departments will volunteer, contributing more than 350 hours to engage with students and parents and build excitement for learning.

The programme brings together state government representatives, district officials, village leaders, parents and corporate volunteers in a collaborative effort to promote education, especially for girls, and ensure every child gets access to quality early education.

“The first day of school is a special milestone in every child’s life. Through our support to Shala Praveshotsav, we aim to warmly welcome young learners with encouragement and enthusiasm,” Rino Raj, Vice President and Site Head, Mithapur, said in a statement.

“Together with schools, parents and the community, we remain committed to strengthening access to quality education and building a strong foundation for every child’s future success.”
