Atlas, a renowned world in bicycle world, quoted the winning bid of Rs. 2,490 per piece. Since last year’s bid was closed at Rs. 2,780 only, authorities may negotiate with the company. As of now, they’ve sealed the deal with Atlas. If all goes well, about 3 lakh female students studying in class IX will receive orange coloured Atlas bicycles in this academic session (2015-2016). This move will encourage more parents to educate their girl child, especially the families residing in rural regions.

Newborns to Receive the Gift of ‘Milk’ at Bharatpur
Rajasthan government has elaborate plans to safeguard health and immunity of the newborns. Seeing the massive success of clinical mother banking, they’ve decided to invest in community milk banks. Accordingly, the first state-level community milk bank was launched at Bharatpur. It was set up at District women hospital, under divisional head quarters. In case of mother’s sickness or critical condition, their young ones don’t have to wait for milk. They’ll receive the same love and nourishment from these milk banks. If this scheme becomes a hit, Rajasthan government may implement it in other divisions, as well.
