Vanwasi Residential High School, Dabra

Education

A residential school was set up in the year 2003 in Tehsil Dabra of District Gwalior for socio-economic development of the children of Sahariya tribe residing in Gwalior Chambal division of Madhya Pradesh. This school started under the guidance of the late Shri Vishnu Kumar Ji, a senior pracharak of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, then this school was operated from a rented building with 25 children. But as the upcoming result of school and rising expectations of the society, it was expanded to high school and started to operate from its own building in the year 2010. All-round development of students of Vanvasi Samaj started due to higher education of the school.

- Efforts of Sewa Bharti and Saharia Tribe

The Saharia is a forest-dwelling tribe for thousands of years. In Persian, the forest is called Sahara, so they were called Sahariya.The population of Sahariya tribe in Madhya Pradesh is about five lakhs, out of which a population of four lakhs resides in Gwalior Chambal division. In the year 2010, the literacy rate of Sahariya tribe was 28%, with tenth pass being 1.8 and undergraduate 0.5%, but Now the literacy rate of this society is around 54% and the number of students passing the tenth class in each village center is 5 to 10. In this way, we get to see the number of 12th pass students 3 to 5 and the number of graduate students 2 to 4 o each village, which is the proggresive result of Sewa Bharti's educational institutions.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 ClassWise Number of students in Last three years
