Extract from ResearchBuzz ///Telegraph India: 'Library man' tribal official in Jharkhand establishes 25 libraries <https://www.telegraphindia.com/jharkhand/library-man-tribal-official-in-jha…>. "A tribal official in the agriculture department in Jharkhand has earned the moniker of Kolhan’s 'library man' for establishing as many as 25 libraries, including 12 digital libraries, in over a decade to help underprivileged students pursue their dream of higher education. Sanjay Kachyap, a 40-year-old market secretary of the Agriculture Produce Market Committee (APMC) in Parsudih (Jamshedpur), has used his own experience of struggles in pursuing higher education to provide the benefits of libraries to poor students in rural hinterlands, mostly in rebel-hit areas."/// Dr P Vyasamoorthy / 9490804278 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
