The much-appreciated ‘Roshni’ project for educational upliftment of children of migrant workers in Ernakulam has hit a roadblock. Forty education volunteers, who remain the backbone of the project, have not received their monthly salary of ₹10,000 each from November last to March this year. About 1,250 migrant children enrolled in classes 1 to 7 across 40 government and aided schools in the district had benefited from the programme amidst the pandemic situation in the previous academic year.More Related News
