Projects that fit
- Safe drinking water in schools: RO or fluoride-removal units with a rainwater tank, since tests found salinity (high TDS) and fluoride in Ganganagar's groundwater.
- Classrooms to upgrade schools where the next level is too far: 106 schools are beyond 3 km to class 6 or 5 km to class 9. A classroom costs about ₹17 lakh to ₹19 lakh for the structure; see school building cost.
- Girls' toilets, handwashing stations and repairs, checked school by school against UDISE+ report cards.
Before funding
Shortlist schools from data, then check each against its UDISE+ report card and visit the best few with the headteacher and School Management Committee. Our school selection guide has a 100-point scorecard for this.
