To add a bit of tangential perspective to the collective goal of a book in every child’s hand, here’s the Value of Rs. 500 (if you haven’t seen it already).
Attributions: OpenspaceIndia.org / Possibly “Nitin Das” [Edited in good faith based on below comment by Hemant Kathuria]
Championing the cause: Pratham Books and Tulika Books.
Head on over.

OpenspaceIndia didnt make this video.
This video was made by a friend of mine called “Nitin Das” , an alumnus from IIML.
He’s the one who directed the first college campus movie of India - Formula69.
Great video, definitely (re)inspired me. Used to sponsor a child’s education each year but missed out last year. This reminded me to start again … !
