Recommended for Preparatory Grades
National award honouree Umesh T.P. has been steadily constructing a school’s infrastructure over the course of the past 12 years.
He is a teacher at a government lower primary school. He is also the recipient of a national award from the Union Ministry of Education.
Umesh believes that as of today not only is the school infrastructure sound, but the students exhibit a high level of self-assurance. They are broadcasting their programmes on All-India Radio.
Key Facts!
- In 2010 Umesh moved to the remote village of Amruthapura in Karnataka.
- The majority of natives are members of the backward Golla community.
- The school in Amruthapura was not in working condition when Umesh first arrived in 2010.
- However, he took the help of locals and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to gradually develop the infrastructure.
- This included the building, toilets, drinking water, and a school compound, amongst other things.
- As a result, the school received recognition as one of the best in the country.
- In addition to teaching the students through online classes, he oversaw the implementation of school projects in nearby villages as well.
- In addition, he is the author of six books, and in 2021, he was awarded the Uttam Teacher Award by the state.
