As per information, around 40,000 books were distributed among students today. Jagjit Singh, District Education Officer (Secondary), said they aimed to reach out to maximum students to promote reading and ensure that books of their choice were handed over to kids.

Deputy DEO ( Secondary) Amrik Singh said, “The initiative holds more importance as students are stuck at their homes in the wake of the pandemic. Thus, it will help in engaging them productively without exposure to screens.”

Vigorous poster campaigns via social media platforms and announcements from gurdwaras were made to sensitise students and their parents regarding the mega event.

A range of books of different subjects were put on display for not just students, but also for parents. An overwhelming response was received from students, their parents and local residents, said teachers.

Teachers said they had received a great response and now the endeavour would be made a regular feature to inculcate a habit of reading books.

As both teachers and students enthusiastically participated in the event, now they would also be encouraged to write reviews on books they picked, said Surinder Pal Agnihotri, in charge, Zila Sikhiya Sudhar Team, Nawanshahr.
