An initiative of Gram Vikas Trust, Bharuch supported by individual and organizational donors.

For example, in 2009, GVT found out that in Aladar village (Vagra block of Bharuch district), none of the girls used to go to school after class 6, and till 2009, there was no girl in the village having higher secondary education.
