Right to education: Where there is a wall, there is a way
Deepnarayan Nayak, known as 'Raster Master', started an outdoor school in a tribal village near Asansol in 2014, using mud walls as blackboards to educate underprivileged children. His 3G model includes three generations and has expanded to nearly 50 centers with 150 teachers and 10,000 students. Despite India's free elementary education system serving 131 million students, many schools lack standards, leading to high dropout rates, especially among girls.
