Mumbai: Sushant Singh Rajput launches Sushant4Education programme for the students.
The Bollywood actor who had dropped out of engineering college to pursue his acting aspirations, stresses on the importance of education.
He recently launched a programme named Sushant4Education, as a part of efforts to help young students.
With this programme, Sushant hopes to actuate the strong sense of learning in young minds as he firmly believes in the power of education towards a prosperity of the nation. Among multiple initiatives under the programme one is to provide counsellors to the schools in helping young students to make a right choice of career based on their strengths and aptitude.
Sources have mentioned that despite his busy schedule Sushant will be personally meeting school principals and selecting trained counsellors for this very purpose. These counsellors would be visiting schools on a weekly basis. In fact, these sessions have already begun in two schools (St Elias High School and SS Sahney High School).
Sources added, "When Sushant announced this initiative on his social media platforms, over a hundred applications from counsellors came in. Sushant has already shortlisted two counsellors who have started visiting schools from this month. He will be meeting the school principals and counselors to select candidates himself for this programme. Next on the agenda is also installing projectors in certain schools, to make subjects more interactive, by bringing in the visual medium and make learning fun. Majority of the kids from these schools are first generation learners. The idea was to ensure that students are well informed about different kinds of career avenues that lie before them so that they can make the right choices according to their aptitude."
Sushant said, "My mother always taught me that we educate our children not to become a doctor or engineer, but the impact of education reflects on their thought process and decision making. This is a very small step and it will give kids a new excitement and encouragement.
