‘Talent is not hostage to caste, creed and religion’- CM Yogi Adityanath

Lucknow| Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath simultaneously launched the academic session 2024-25 in all the 18 Atal Residential Schools of the state in a program organized at Atal Residential School in Mohanlalganj on Thursday. On this occasion he targeted the opposition parties. CM said that what will those who encourage the enemies of the country by creating social animosity in the name of social justice be able to bear the brunt of poverty?

CM said that expecting from those who have always exploited, spread anarchy, never seen poverty, they should be able to understand the pain of the registered workers associated with the BOC Board or these destitute children who have lost their parents or guardians during the Covid period. Will be able to understand. Those people have no time or leisure to understand it, because they have their own agendas. Their only agenda is to divide people for political gains. Apart from this they cannot see anything. They want that a poor person should never be free from poverty, deprivation and illiteracy. If this happens then the politics of their division and social animosity will completely end.

This is the reason why governments were there earlier also, money was there earlier also, but education was not arranged for the children of the poor. Atal Residential School is being established as a model to shake those who want to create anarchy, create chaos and mafia in the field of education.

CM Yogi said that right now we have started 18 schools, whereas in the second phase we are going to open similar schools in the form of composite schools in 57 districts. At the same time, in the third phase, it will be taken to all 350 tehsils of the state, then in the fourth phase, such schools will be established in 825 development blocks.

He said that in the fifth phase we will take it to the Nyaya Panchayat level. This means that 2000 such schools will be visible within the state which will become a medium to provide good education to the children. Apart from this, he said that in the 57 schools that will be built in the next phase, children from class 1 to class 12 will study. Children’s garden will also be built in these.

Earlier, CM Yogi provided school bags and text books to the children admitted in class 6 and class 9. Whereas CM distributed awards and certificates to the students who got first, second and third position in class 6 in the academic session 2023-24. Apart from this, CM also gave awards to Vigyan Ratna and leading students in sports and other activities.

CM Yogi said that revered Atal ji used to say that no power in the world can stop a society which successfully combats illiteracy and deprivation from becoming safe and prosperous. These deprivation and illiteracy are the biggest enemies of the society. Deprivation comes from poverty, from inaction, from anarchy, from corruption, from mutual division and wherever there is corruption, there will be anarchy, there will be deprivation, there will also be jungle raj, there will be chaos, there will be unsafe environment, no one will be respected.

When the society does not get leadership in the right direction, diseases like illiteracy spread rapidly and a large section of the society falls prey to it. In such a situation, all these distortions like poverty, hunger and deprivation are seen in the society. Revered Atal had a wide-ranging life experience and he had put that experience on the ground through his words, through his poems and when he got the opportunity to come to the government, he had taken a comprehensive action plan to fight these evils.

CM Yogi said that whether it is an individual or a society, you cannot imagine a civilized and capable society and nation without educating it well. Atal Residential Schools should become the standard of quality of education. Without discrimination, children from every section of the society should get rights over the resources of the country, society and government without asking about their caste, face, region and language. To realize this right, Atal Residential School has been presented as a model of education.

CM said that now I formally got the opportunity to interact with children in a class room. Talent is not hostage to caste, creed and religion. Talent can be born anywhere, it just has to be given a platform. Appropriate opportunities have to be provided for that and this should be the responsibility of the government.
