The initiative focuses on quality education through welcoming traditions, writing exercises, mid-day meals, and cultural celebrations, strengthening the state's educational framework.

On Wednesday, Odisha's Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi launched the 'Sishu Vatika' initiative to enhance pre-school education for children aged 5-6 under the New Education Policy (NEP) 2020.

In the heartwarming 'Prabesh Utsav,' children were welcomed traditionally, followed by the 'Khadi Chhuan' program where they wrote on slates for the first time. This marks a significant step in providing quality education.
