BHOPAL: The innovative education reform spearheaded by an MLA has transformed Jawad, a rural Assembly constituency in Madhya Pradesh, into a beacon of academic excellence. It has redefined government schools as hubs of learning innovation, aligning seamlessly with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat.

What began in 2003 as a modest effort to foster academic competition has evolved into a comprehensive movement, bridging the digital divide, empowering students with modern skills, setting new benchmarks, and inspiring educational excellence across the state.

According to Kailash Soni, a resident of Morvan village in the Jawad Assembly area of Neemuch district, the initiative was launched by MLA, Omprakash Sakhlecha, with a reward of Rs 5,000 for only two government school students who passed the higher secondary examination with first division.

Since then, a spirit of academic competition has been ignited among students across the region, including tribal areas, motivating them to excel in exams. This year, the number of high achievers has surpassed the 200 mark", he told Millennium Post.
