Hyderabad: Girls have proven their capabilities globally, often excelling when given the right opportunities and resources. However, in many parts of India, girls still lack access to education despite their inherent right to it. To tackle this significant issue, BBG Bangaru Talli has been dedicated to empowering girls through education in rural and remote areas.
Bangaru Talli’s mission is ambitious: To empower two million girls through education by 2040. BBG takes pride in having positively impacted the lives of approximately 170,000 girls in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh through its initiatives.
In honour of Chairman and Managing Director, M.V. Mallikarjun Reddy’s birthday, Bangaru Talli organised a motivational event, “Prerana”, at Devnar Blind School in Begumpet. The programme aimed to kindle determination and resilience among the students, encouraging them to face challenges with unwavering vision and strength.
Designed to promote girl child empowerment, the programme focused on building confidence, self-esteem, and leadership skills. Experts like Neeraja Ankapalli and Kasturi Usha led interactive sessions covering goal-setting, overcoming obstacles, and the importance of education.
Mallikarjun Reddy highlighted the critical role of inclusive education and equal opportunities, stating, “Empowering the girl child is crucial for a harmonious and progressive society. I am proud to see these bright minds shine despite the challenges they face.”
The enthusiasm and determination of the students at the Devnar Blind School left a lasting impression on all attendees. The event concluded with a cake-cutting ceremony and a renewed pledge to continue supporting the noble cause of empowering the girl child.
The Bangaru Talli programme stands as a testament to the dedication to empowering marginalised communities and fostering inclusive growth that drives positive societal change.
