The primary
purpose of this program is to strengthen in the minds of
children their respect for their parents and teachers, whose
blessings will enable them to be successful in life.
Under this
programme, the representatives of Bharat Vikas Parishad visit a
number of schools in their areas to express thanks and gratitude
to the teachers and congratulate the meritorious students.
Such functions
are organized during the months of July to September every year.
Ever since the programme was adopted at the national level in
2001-02, there has been a good response to this programme in
which lakhs of students and teachers participate every year as
