The event, graced by the District Education Officer,\u00a0Shri Vinay Kumar,\u00a0Ranchi, as Chief Guest, alongside the CSR partners Concentrix, Lotus Petal Foundation, initiates construction of an academic building with dedicated classrooms and a toilet complex to enhance learning environments for young girls.<\/p>\n
Shri Vinay Kumar, District Education Officer, Ranchi, said:\u00a0“This groundbreaking at Chhotanagpur Balika High School, supported by Concentrix and led by Lotus Petal Foundation, is a vital step toward modern facilities and quality education for underprivileged children. We applaud their commitment to Jharkhand’s government schools.”<\/em><\/p>\nThis first intervention in Jharkhand holds profound personal significance for Lotus Petal Foundation, Founder & Managing Trustee Kushal Raj Chakraborty, who grew up in Ranchi. While Lotus Petal’s efforts have primarily focused on Gurugram and surrounding areas, this expansion underscores a commitment to uplift the very community that shaped his early years. With this initiative of Government School Transformation, Lotus Petal has laid grounds for expansion in Jharkhand to support children in their education journey.<\/p>\n
Kushal Raj Chakraborty, Founder & Managing Trustee, Lotus Petal Foundation, added\u00a0“Ranchi is where my journey began, and returning to give back through the transformation of Chhotanagpur Balika High School feels deeply personal. Under our Vidya Sahyog Project, we’re building not just infrastructure, but brighter futures for underprivileged children. This is the first step in our vision to transform government schools across Jharkhand, ensuring every child has access to quality education regardless of background.”<\/em><\/p>\nThe initiative aims to create safe, functional spaces that promote attendance, focus, and overall child development. Lotus Petal\u2019s plans to scale these efforts statewide, partnering with local authorities and stakeholders to drive systemic change in public education.<\/p>\n
