Current Affairs - State - Discussion

Gujarat launched the Samras Vidya Setu mega campaign in July 2026 to bring more than 80,000 school dropout children back into the formal education system. The initiative aims to enrol children from Standards 1 to 12 in age-appropriate classes through bridge courses, remedial coaching, and residential schools for students with learning gaps. The campaign uses the Early Tracking System, Child Monitoring System, and field monitoring by CRC and BRC coordinators to identify and support dropout students. It aligns with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the Viksit Bharat 2047 vision, while recognising high-performing districts and School Management Committees on Teachers' Day to encourage sustained educational progress.
