Educational Parentage of Girls | Yashwant Samajik Pratishthan

Ahmednagar District’s share in the cooperative movement is large one. There is a great web of the cooperative institutes like cooperative factories, cooperative water distribution societies, cooperative societies etc. The beginner of educational movement, lover of trees and philanthropist for the downtrodden people; Hon’ble Yashwantraoji Gadakh Saheb deserves the following words:

“The small vine planted at the door. The vine scored the sky. Mogra bloomed, Mogra bloomed.”

The president of Mula Education Society; Hon’ble Prashantbhau Gadakh is committed to take care of the society. He established Yashwant Samajik Pratishtan and shouldered the responsibility of educating the poor but studious students of the community by providing the financial assistance and approved the girl’s adoption for educational parentage. Girls from the common families are deprived of education due to economical and social reasons. The Pratishtan made attempts to locate such girls who have strong urge for learning from the villages in the vicinity and adopted 52 girls for their completing their education. At present the girls are learning with self respect and content and being the part of the bright future of the country.

On the outset I would like to thank President of Yashwant Samajik Pratishtan; Prashantbhau Gadakh. I was orphaned by my father in a rural area like Fattehpur and only with the illiterate mother to care for the two siblings by doing labor. I wished to learn by holding the ideal of Savitribai Phule and by looking at the face of the mother. Made helpless by the misery, I wondered if the light of knowledge would creep in or not and would continue the education or not. Right at that time I recollected the Pratishtan and sensitive Prashantbhau. I met him and conveyed the misery and at once he allowed and my hopes were vitalized. I am so happy that I got one brother for supporting me. It is only because of Bhau that I am completing my education in B.C.A . My family shall always remain in debts for the Pratishtan.

I do not remember when my parents attained heaven. A distant aunty who used to scrub utensil and wash cloths at others houses nurtured me and educated me up to 10th std. She found it difficult to manage with her own family and my nurturing with education. I started feeling that everything has been finished and I might not continue education as there is nobody to support me. But I heard somewhere that Sonai son and dutiful educational enthusiast Prashantbhau Gadakh assisted such misery stricken students to complete their education. I met Prashantbhau and he promised me to help in all manners. At that moment I started coloring dreams of the brightness in my life. Later he availed me hostel and admission in B.C.A. Prashantbhau is one of the great thinkers and a support to orphans. I am what I am because of the president of the Pratishtan;

After my father passed away, all hopes of education were dismissed but when I received the information from the distant acquaintance about the Pratishtan’s Adoption Scheme, I met President Saheb and narrated my tragic story. Soon Bhau approved my strong urge for education and gave me admission to B. Pharmacy, the stream of my choice without any fees and managed to provide hostel and boarding facility. This brought tears in the eyes of my mother. She thanked Bhau from the bottom of heart. I see Bhau carrying ahead the social and educational thoughts of Rajshri Shahu Maharaj, Mahatma Phule and Savitribai Phule.
