I am studying in 9th class at ZPHS Kuppiganipalli. I come from a poor economic background, making it difficult for me to afford private tuition. However, I regularly attend this program and receive clarification on any doubts I have in subjects. It's helping me improve my knowledge and skills for my future studies and higher education.- Student Feedback

Operation Vasantha is a highly beneficial program. Many parents are hesitant to send their children to tuition due to personal reasons, and they often have to send their children to town. Through the OV Program, I support the children in my village, and it also helps me improve my knowledge and gain experience in my teaching profession. Thank you, Agastya, for this tradition.Volunteer Feedback 

In my village, the Agastya OV center has been running for 9 years, and it has been very useful. My daughter regularly attends this center. She is improving her science and English knowledge through various activities, including group activities. I see all the children actively participating every day. During holidays, it is beneficial for my children. Thank you, Agastya. - Parent Feedback
