IEP CHANDIGARH JULY 15, 2022

In the year 2018, on this day only, while realizing the dream of Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal to provide quality education, Atulya Library was setup at village Juan, District Sonipat, in the memory of Master Atul a special child of Juan village.

Meanwhile, for the past five years, the library has been continually proving to be a boon for children studying in various schools (after school hours) who are preparing for competitive examinations as here they can easily get access to the high-quality academic material required for cracking some of the most prestigious competitive examinations, that too free of cost.

Atulya library as the name says, ‘Unique’ has certainly gained huge popularity not only among the students coming from the Juan area but also among the students coming from the neighbouring areas as they do not have to travel to the urban areas and spend lakhs to get quality study material for competitive exams. Offering a good academic environment, the library is greatly helping rural background students to academically compete with the students of urban areas.

Sharing more details, the President and General Secretary of the Library said that the Library is open for students 24 hours a day, day and night. Within a few months of its existence at Mandir campus on the bank of a river on more than 3 acres of Shamlat land, this library is equipped with about 2,000 books, more than 10 Computers, Projectors, etc. to cater to the academic needs of the students studying in classes K.G to P.G. Besides this, the library also has quality education material for Ph.D. students.

“The Library has a sitting capacity of 50 students. Since the library remains open round the clock, adequate arrangement of providing clean drinking water, along with free of cost Tea and  Coffee facility has also been ensured especially for students studying during late night,” said President and General Secretary.

He further shared that since its foundation, in the last more than three years almost 50-60 students qualified in different examinations at the Central and State levels and around 15 students got Government jobs in various departments.

This year and last year the National Book Trust, New Delhi has also donated books to Atulya Library as well. Besides this, the State Government has also gifted an ITI near to this Library in the name of Master Atul ITI, village Juan, Sonipat to provide quality education to the students of the neighbouring areas along with ensuring skilled education for every child under the Right of Education, said the President.

He said that many times in the past, the Chief Minister has also praised the working of library on social media citing that such an initiative has started showing positive results as after studying in the Libraries situated in villages like ‘Atulya Library’, the students of the nearby areas have passed various competitive exams and succeeded in getting government jobs.

President and General Secretary while expressing gratitude towards the Chief Minister said that setting up of such modern libraries in villages is not only academically benefitting the students but has also saved their travelling time and money as earlier they had to move to cities to prepare for competitive examination. But now they are getting such an environment of education in the village itself, due to which they are excelling in every field.
