The Canara Rebeco Asset Management Company has donated 46 bicycles to rural students. The company donated 20 bicycles to Janata Vidyalay Karsul and 26 bicycles to Janata Vidyalay Tembhe. The students were left with joy after receiving the bicycles. All the selected students were from marginalised backgrounds, with most of their parents working as farm labourers.

The event was graced by the presence of key guests, including Nitin Thakare (General Secretary, MVP Samaj), Vishwas More (Vice President), and Rahul Kalamkar, Branch Manager, Canara Robeco Asset Management Company. The bicycles were handed over to the students by hand.

While addressing and guiding the students on this occasion, the dignitaries noted that many students in rural areas have to traverse long distances to reach school. In such circumstances, a bicycle serves not merely as a mode of transport but as a force that gives momentum to the students' dreams. They expressed confidence that this initiative would ensure continuity in the students' education and boost their self-confidence.

The event was presided over by Nitin Thakare, General Secretary of the MVP Samaj institution. Present on this occasion were the Chairman of the School Management Committee, Bhausaheb Shankhpal, along with Ajay Gavli, Balasaheb Shankhpal, Chandrakant Gade, Annasaheb Jadhav, Nandu Pagar, Nitin Takte, Shrinivas Gavli, Madhavrao Pagar, Pankaj Takte, Sitaram Jadhav, Devendra Kajale, Vijay Shankhpal, Uttam Shankhpal, Sopan Shankhpal, Sahebrao Pagar, Baburao Takte, Headmistress Munali Pingle, Sagar Jadhav, Mohini Aher, Manisha Nimse, Pratibha Kshirsagar, Neha Deshmukh, Avantika Gaikwad, Akash Bhilore, Sandeep Bochare, and Ravindra Dhomse, among many other dignitaries.

“This initiative has brought smiles to the faces of the students. The bicycles received for their education will provide a new direction in the journey of their dreams. This initiative has garnered widespread appreciation throughout the Kursul region.”
