Started on jute sacks in a courtyard, Dinajpur's 'Sanjiban Pathshala' is now being built

A pathshala set up for disadvantaged children in Dharmapur Union of Biral upazila in Dinajpur is now taking a permanent shape. It is being built under the name 'Sanjiban Pathshala'.

The pathshala has been run by Ansar commander Kamalchandra Sarkar. Its pupils are children from Santal and very poor families of Dharmapur Union.

For a long time Kamalchandra Sarkar ran the pathshala in the courtyard of his own home. The children studied sitting on jute sacks spread out in that courtyard.

Construction of the 'Sanjiban Pathshala' has now begun for that same school where children learned sitting on jute sacks.
