About us

The central theme of Tagore’s philosophy of life was concerned with the creation of a synthetic and harmonious way of living which he tried to bring back to the rural life through self-reliance and co-operation among all sections of people through his rural reconstruction programme. Tagore wanted to organize the villages so that the villages could supply all their needs on cooperative basis.

It is known that rural libraries have an important role in increasing literacy and improving the quality of life of the community by holding empowerment activities.

Details About Manbhum district (Purulia)

Manbhum District was one of the districts of the East India during the British Raj. After India’s independence, the district became a part of Bihar State. Upon the reorganization of the Indian states in the mid-1950s, the Manbhum district was partitioned based on language. The Bengal-speaking areas were included in West Bengal, while the rest were kept with Bihar. The name of Purulia district was Manbhum district which was once a part of the state of Ordisa and Bihar. later the district was included in the state of Bihar and on November 1, 1956, a part of Manbhum district was included in West Bengal as Purulia. Needless to say, this district was first established through the language movement after independence.

In this time Purulia’s Education was confined to only a handful aristocrats’ families. The common man had an indifferent attitude towards education in Purulia during this time. In such situation, We had done a lot to make education universal.
