BANGALORE:
Many of these children will be seeing something outside their villages and small towns for the first time. The Chinnara Suvarna Karnataka Darshana, a free educational tour programme under the universal primary education project, Sarvashiksha Abhiyan will help 11,750 children from Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, this year. Many will be girls.
The tour programme has been on since 2004-05, and close to 457 batches including 23,000 children have already enjoyed the travel experience.
The children are given a diary to note down their impressions and there are competitive events too during the tours with prizes to be won.
