sCO (A Programme for Universalisation of Elementary Education in India) PERSPECTIVE PLAN for District-Jind (Haryana) AWP.4-B. (2002-2003) Prepared by: District Core Team (Planning) CTS e f a c e ^ Universalisation of Elementaiy Education has been one of the long cherished goals reflected both in the constitution and policy commitments since independence. Central Government has taken up the challenge for the universalisation of Elementary Education. There have been a number of interventions sponsored by central and state governments during the last fifty years or so. District Elementary Education Programme (Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan) being launched by the central government with state’s assistance is one of such interventions, which is based on the local contextuality and flexibility with main focus on taking all the children of age group 6-14 in its fold and improvement in quality of learning. District Jind is one of the sixteen districts in Haryana in which this Programme is going to be launched from April 1, 2002. The essential components of this programme are grass-root level planning (Micro Planning) and implementation in the context of local requirements having flexibility in the norm with coordination and support from the national level. The District Core Team (Planning) has formulated this perspective plan of DEEP (2002-2010) as per aspirations of members of the community, local bodies, teachers, representatives of the teachers’ unions, educational administrators. It is the result of decentralized planning aimed at achieving the cherished goal of UEE in all its manifestations viz. enrolment, retention & quality learning. This document of perspective plan of DEEP is the result of collective efforts of many people. The continued support extended by the State Project Director, Sh. R. R. Banswal, IAS is greatly acknowledged. But for his guidance and moral support this task would not have been accomplished in the stipulated period. The valuable suggestions offered by functionaries of district administration have greatly benefited the formulation of this document for which the District Planning Team stands indebted to them. The Planning Team owes a lot to Dr. Balkar Singh, Deputy Director (Planning) HPSPP and Sh. Vinod Kumar, Lecturer SIEMT Bhiwani for providing guidance and support during the planning process. We also acknowledge the contribution of Sh. Manjeet Singh Dhiman, Data Entry Operator (EMIS Cell, DPIU Jind) for assistance in the data storage, tabulation, analysis and composing of this perspective plan document. Thanks are also due to all the staff members of DPIU, Jind for the cooperation extended by them. It is hoped that the present perspective plan of District Elementary Education Programme (SSA) would find favour with policy planners and implementers. District Core Team (Planning) District Elementary Education Programme (SSA), District Jind (Haryana) REVISED PERSPECTIVE PLAN The plan of District Elementar}^ Education Programme was submitted to the state authorities in the month of December, 2001. Central Appraisal Mission comprising four members headed by Dr. Swarna Gupta of NCERT, New Delhi appraised the perspective plan of SSA in a meeting held at Red Bishop, Panchkula. The team gave some valuable suggestions like completing the household survey in the whole district to get the real picture and position of the target group and upgradation of the primary schools to the level of upper primary where its need is being felt to achieve the aim of universalisation of elementary education. We are highly thankful to them for this suggestion as it helped and guided us to propose the upgradation of 103 primary schools to the level of upper primary at the villages and in towns where there is no upper primary school in the reasonable vicinity. We are thankful to each and every teacher who helped us in the work of household survey conducted for Jind City. But for their help and cooperation this task would not have been accomplished. We proposed the interventions related to primary education from the session 2003-04, as District Primary Education Programme has been extended up to 2003 in this district. We have already proposed computer education in some of the upper primary schools. It emerged in the sharing workshops that we should propose the establishment of Information Technology Labs for all of the upper primar}^ schools in the district. It would really help the children studying in our govt, schools to compete with the children studying in the private schools in this age of Information Technology. It is hoped that this revised perspective plan of District Elementary Education Programme (SSA), Jind if properly implemented would certainly be a milestone towards UEE.

It is not sure how Haryana acquired its name. Historians have tried to explain the origin of the word “Haryana” on the basis of phonetics. To some ‘Haryana’ is the landing place of ‘Har’ (Lord) and his ‘yana’ (Chariot), while to others ‘Haiyana’ is combination of ‘Hari’ and ‘Aana’ meaning that Hari came to this place. H.R. Gupta claims that ‘Haryana’ is the corrupt form of ‘Aryana’, the abode of Aryans. Some historians associate it with ‘Haryala-Van’ - i.e. the green forests that once characterised this part of the Indo Gangetic plains. Topography: Haryana is one of the smaller states in terms of area & population. Its total geographical area is 44212 Sq. Kms. i.e. 1.3% of the total area of the country. The state is situated within the compass of northern region of the Indian union with Uttar Pardesh to its east, Punjab to its west, a part of Himachal Pardesh to its north, and a vast expanse of Rajasthan to its south, with Delhi forming an enclave on its eastern boundary. The state of Haryana is bounded by the Shivalik hills in the north & by the Aravali hills in the south. There are some high ridges running throughout the tract from the Northwest to the Northeast. The ridges are known as the ‘Morni Hills’ (the average elevation of about 1065 mts.) & the Tipra Hills’ (average elevation of about 1370 mts.) The valley of the Ghaggar River separates these hills.
