It will be spread out / extended to 8 Districts within next 10 years and upgraded from primary to HS+2 stage regionally. The Baba Garia Mission has already purchased land for the purpose of establishment educational institutions and now it is under the exclusive possession of Baba Garia Mission. For the purpose of extending modern & proper educational & cultural facility to the Tribal community, only Rs.30/= is collected from every family of Jamatia Hoda per annum by the representative of Baba Garia Mission & it is very meager amount to meet our plan.

At Garia Hathai, Atharabla, Udaipur, Gomati Dist., Tripura, Baba Garia Mission has started Model School named as Garia Academy (Model) with the Hostel capacity of 150 Girls and 200 Boys total 532 students from 2012-13 Academic Session.

In every Saturday we are also providing special moral teaching class to the students by our prominent persons of the society who have good knowledge in National Integrity & National building, communal harmony, Traditional ethos & culture of the Tribals etc. Through this Academy we have already taught and given full ideas to 905 youths selected by the Baba Garia Mission from remote areas about demerits of Extremist life and as a result there is not a single person who has been misguided and joined in underprivileged group since last 10 years (from August 2002 to April 2012) from Jamatia Community.

We are confident and firmly believe that those youths who were selected and taught by BGM Authority from different communities cannot be derailed from main stream of the Nation in their lifetime and they are also carrying the good messages to the different societies as well as to the young generation. Through this policy we are getting good result and good response from general people in fighting against the evil forces i.e. extremist’s activities in the State.

This year also we have already started from 1^st of August 2012 with 52 Girls and 48 Boys in two units of Madhyamik Drop out Coaching Centre for continuing our policy to eliminate underprivileged’s activities from the state and to achieve our goal.

The Garia Hathai, Atharabla, Udaipur, Dist.Gomati, Tripura is located in the middle of the State and there is no quality educational Institute in and around the place and therefore, for all purposes Garia Hathai, Atharabla, Udaipur, Gomati District, Tripura has been selected as Headquarter of Baba Garia Mission. Sri Jual Oram, The Hon’ble Minister for Tribal Affairs, Govt. of India has laid down foundation stone on 08-10-2001 for the Institution named as “GARIA ACADEMY” over 3.31 Acres Jote land & later on we have purchased here more 10.00 Acres, now total jote land comes to 13.31 Acres .

For the purpose we are also in possession of 66 acres of land adjacent to the Jote land here. It is mention-able that all the Govt. Schools in the remote areas are not functioning properly because of the many reasons. As a result, tribal students are found to be loitering as "Drop Out" students in the Secondary Education level. These scopes are being utilized by the some NGOs and made with anti-Indian out look.

So, this educational Institution will immensely be beneficial to the people of the state. Under the guidance of Jamatia Hoda and Baba Garia Mission, this Institution is giving proper education as well as national integrity and communal harmony to the students particularly to the Tribals of different communities and as a result there is no chance for perverting the young generation from the main stream of the Nation. The total project cost of the Institutions for the entire plan is Rs.100.00 crores only. The plan and project adopted by the Baba Garia Mission will be completed in phase manner.

There is no good creative resource centre for school, educational Institutions and children facility in Tripura Tribal Children. At present there are 530 Students in the school including day scholars and good number of teacher and non-teaching staffs. Indigenous tribal people are rendered to be a minority by the more dominant community and for this reason the tribal has no much voice in the state affairs. Majority of the tribals are still living the most primitive way of life by earning their livelihood through traditional means of agriculture and allied activities. Their backwardness compounded by the absence of good and accessible educational institution leads many of the tribal to forgo schooling and the few students that got enrolled in the primary school got dropped-out before they reach the age of 14 years driven mainly by poverty.

The present project is an initiative to help the Tribal students between the ages of 3 to 17 from remote area who does not have access to proper schooling due to absence of the facility in their village. The project will enable them to get proper education at least till they complete matriculation by studying in the proposed Residential and Non- Residential School. Further, this project will also lessen the burden of the BABA GARIA MISSION, the NGO which is running the school mainly from charitable contribution of its members and well wishers.

The location for the proposed project is in a rural area where no proper govt. school is located and as such students from the remote blocks finds it difficult to get proper education to pursue their studies. With assistance from the person, businessman, Service holder and any organization the project will go a long way in solving the problems faced by students from the less privileged section of the society.

Since, the Mission does not get regular and sufficient fund, it has been facing lots of difficulties in financial matters. The limited resource of the organization could not have the desired impact as the numbers of students are increasing and many deserving students could not be covered by our limited sponsorship. Moreover, the much needed incentives for the development of the school could not be extended due to lack of fund.

The Baba Garia Mission has obtained the award “JEWEL OF INDIA AWARD -2013” for outstanding achievements of education 23^rd February, 2013(Time- 04:00 P.M.) at The Indian Society of International Law, V.K.
