ASHA SCHOOL, DEVLALI

Brief on the Asha School

1. The children and the grownups with the sound body and brain have no problems in learning the various means and techniques to sustain life and progress in their respective fields of interest. However, the unfortunate ones with physical and mental disabilities very often need support for themselves in this highly competitive and materialistic world.  It is the social and moral responsibility of all of us to look after these special children. 
2. The problem is much more acute for the wards of Armed Forces personnel who are deployed in remote and far flung areas and have to move from one place to another very frequently.  Keeping the above fact in mind, the Armd Forces perceived the noble idea of having their own institutions to look after these special children.  Thus the concept of Asha School was perceived.  These schools have been established to provide education and rehabilitation trg facilities for these special children of Army personnel.  Accordingly Asha School at Devlali was instituted in Aug 1994 under the name of `ROSHNI’.  In Nov 1998, the School was redesignated ASHA School.  In the year 2002, the School started receiving grant-in-aid from MoSJ&E (Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, New Delhi) and based on the recommendation of the Ministry, the door of the school was opened for civilians in the year 2001.
