PEOPLE’S NEST – HOSTEL AND SCHOOL PROFILE BY K SATYANARAYANA CHAIRMAN PEOPLES PROGRESS TRUST PRAGATHI NAGAR, (M) 0 944 066 5375 E-Mail: [email protected] AN IDEA TO HELP NEEDY STUDENTS People’s Nest by People’s Progress Trust is the brain child of Sri Dayakar Reddy Garu to educate meritorious students of the economically weaker sections of society from all Districts. Mr. Dayakar Reddy’s vision is to increase this stregnth to 30,000 students covering each and every village of Telangana State. For this purpose, he is planning to establish a huge campus near Zaheerabad. The students are selected annually by Veteran Educationist Dr. Chukka Ramaiah Garu from all the Govt. schools in the State of Telangana.

CRITERIA FOR SELECTION In addition to the merit, poverty of the family is the main criteria. Orphans and semi- orphans are given preference. Representatives of the Peoples Progress Trust visit the houses of the selected students to personally verify the economic condition of the family. SELF-HELP – CORE PHLOSOPHY  The grand bold idea right at the start was to develop the personality of the students by enabling them to take care of themselves without any external assistance in the Hostel.  We made it clear to the students and their parents that what the students will be doing is self- help and not serving others. HOSTEL SELF MANAGED BY STUDENTS  In this pictorial PPT you will see how students undertake all daily chores with smiles on their faces.  The outstanding benefit students get through this activity is self- discipline and self-confidence.  Managing 635 students by student teams themselves is an excellent training in Leadership more vital than pure academic scores.
