श्रीमती साधना शर्मा : 'बेटी पढ़ाओ' और कम्प्यूटर प्रशिक्षण

मै मुलत: रायपुर की निवासी हूँ। अपने परिवार में २ बहन और एक भाई में मै सबसे बड़ी हूँ और घर की हालत बहुत अच्छी नही थी मेरी पढ़ाई कभी दादी कभी बुआ के घर और कभी ताई जी के घर हुई । पढ़ाई तो पहले शादी के लिये की जाती थी कोई अपना सपना नही होता था बस पिता भाई के अनुसार चलते थे। इसी कड़ी में मेरी शादी २० वर्ष की उम्र में हुई तब मात्र B.Sc. (Bio) थी और शादी के बाद बाल्को कोरबा में रहने लगी। ससुराल में पर्दा प्रथा था और थोड़े पुराने ख़्याल के थे, ससुराल का बिल्कुल भी सहयोग नही मिला पर सब का आदर करते हुए मैंने शादी के १० साल के बाद पढ़ाई फिर से शुरु की बच्चों को स्कूल भेज कर पति को आफ़िस भेज कर कम्प्यूटर की पढ़ाई ९० की दशक में शुरु की ।शादी के १० साल के बाद फिर से कम्प्यूटर की पढ़ाई को शुरु करना वह भी बाक़ी ज़िम्मेदारी को निभाते हुए बहुत ही मुश्किल काम था पर नामुमकिन नही था ।इस तरह से पढ़ाई जारी रही लोगों के ताने बाने भी चलती रही। इन सब बातों का मुझ पर नही हुआ कोई असर मै अपना काम करती रही और वे सब अपना ।

इस बीच एक एजेंसी को कम्प्यूटर टीचर की आवश्यकता थी वे मुझे सम्पर्क किये फिर एक कम्प्यूटर दिये और दो स्कूल में पढ़ाना था । हफ़्ते में दो दिन कम्प्यूटर को रिक्शे में ले कर स्कूल जाती और पढ़ा कर वापस कम्प्यूटर को ले कर आती । इस तरह पढ़ना और पढ़ाना जारी रहा । फिर घर के एक छोटे से कमरे में १२ लड़कियों और एक कम्प्यूटर लोन में ले कर क्लास शुरु की मात्र १५० रु महीने का फ़ीस लेकर । इस तरह अपने को और आगे बढ़ाते हुए PGDCPA का कोर्स करने कोरबा जाती जो कि १५ किलोमीटर दूर था कोर्स करते हुए क्लास लेते हुए मार्केट में एक दुकान किराये में लेकर कम्प्यूटर क्लास १९९३ में शुरु की, बाल्को एक छोटी जगह और कम्प्यूटर नया कोर्स होने के कारण बच्चे admission लेने लगे । शटर बंद करने से लेकर क्लास लेने तक का काम अकेली करती फिर धीरे से मेरे द्वारा पढ़ाये विद्धर्थियों ने मेरे यहॉ शिक्षक नियुक्त हुए इस तरह उन्हें रोज़गार मिला । घर के सारे काम बच्चों को पढ़ाना खाना बनाना पढ़ना सब साथ साथ चला।

अब मेरे काम को आगे बढ़ाते हुए ७ स्कूल में कम्प्यूटर के क्लासेस लगाने लगी और ७ टीचर भी रख ली और अब कम्प्यूटर भी सभी स्कूल में लगा लिये। इस तरह से अपने काम को अंजाम देते रहे और इस आदिवासी बाहुल जैसे क्षेत्र में भी कम्प्यूटर की पढ़ाई होने लगी। और ' कम्प्यूटर मैडम' के नाम से जानने लगी। यहॉ के बच्चे छत्तीसगढ़ी बोली जानते थे तो उनको छत्तीसगढ़ी में भी पढ़ाते थे। फिर उनके लिये हिन्दी में पुस्तक भी लिखे ताकि वे आसानी से कम्प्यूटर को सीख सके । ms office , c++ ,Internet , foxpro, tally, VB.net , fundamental , operating system में पुस्तकें हिन्दी में लिखी हूँ । २२ सालों में लगभग १०००० छात्र छात्रायें कम्प्यूटर सीख चुके है जिनमें ७०% छात्रायें ज्ञान अर्जित किये है। कुछ छात्र ज़िला पंचायत, जनपद, स्कूल, देश के कोने कोने में और विदेशों में भी कार्यरत है उन में से कुछ मुझे कहते थे कि आप भी यहॉ विदेश में आज़ाइये पर मैंने उन्हें कहा कि तुम जैसे और बच्चों को तैयार करुंगी और विदेशों और देश में भेजूँगी । मुझे भारत के विकास में योगदान करने का मौक़ा मिला है। हम चाहते है कि कोरबा छत्तीसगढ का नाम देश विदेश में भी रोशन हो।

Dr. Lalita Sharma : Teaches Underprivileged children Academics and personality development

Dr. Lalita Sharma, Assistant Professor at the St . Paul Institute of Professional studies, Indore provides selfless services (Philanthropic) to the community by conducting Literacy classes for almost 300 Underprivileged children and teaches them Academics, Virtues oflife and personality development in the four neighbourhoods of Vijaynagar,Indore namely Scheme no 113, RaghunandanBagh colony, Lahiya colony and KabetKhedi since January2010.

When I shifted to this new area, I found that the parents of these children are working especially the mothers who work as maids doing household chores to support their family. Since these children are unattended for long hours they used to roam, wander idle, use dirty and filthy language, bunk or leave schools, smoke, drink and indulge in some unwanted activity like playing coins, gambling and so on.

It really made me sad as these children as well as youth are going to be the future of India, and are going to represent the so called Developing India . It was really saddening as instead of upliftment or progress of society, signs of degradation was seen.So, I thought of working with them asTheyneeded a direction, moral support so that they could grow up to be good human beings. My family supported me to start the classes. So, here at the Sanskar classes , we take care of these children and Youth- the school dropouts every evenings and channelize their strengths, and capabilities into constructivepurpose.

When we started the classes , almost 40% of the students were either drop outs or not admitted to the school, I even visited some of the homes of these students and gradually all the students got admitted in the schools now making it 100%.

In the Sanskar classes, they are trained to be good individuals, to be truthful, be honest, loving,caring, sharing, etc. through prayers, learning and understanding of quotations, colouring, drama, songs and cooperative games, simple acts of services like tree plantation, cleanliness awareness programs, visits to orphanage etc along with their Academic education from standard I to College level. During the holidays the girl students are also given training for Tailoring , Jewellery making, Flower making and other skills so that they are empowered and it could be useful for their future.

The elder brothers and sisters of these children are also provided training to teach the other children in their own locality. The parents of these children are visited sometimes and they are also invited for the meetings time and again. The family of these children also hosts Devotional Satsangs sometimes ,at their homes where the participants of the Sanskar classes share their learnings through stories or drama.

As the classes are free of cost ,many students line up for getting registed in the class. As the seats are limited, preference is given to the girl students as I believe that educating a girl is educating the generations to come. There are also some instances where the school teachers of government school tell the students who are already coming to Sanskar classes to take along their other friends too so that everyone in the class become good.

My only aim is to help all of these children and Youth to be good Citizens of Developing India and exhibit good Virtues in their life thus leading their society and contributing their share in making a better place to live in peace and harmony irrespective of thediversity.

I have also hired some teachers to help me in the classes which I am able to do by earning my salary as I am a teacher by profession.

Ms. Roshni Mukherjee : with a vision to provide Quality education

I am Roshni Mukherjee and I work with a vision to provide Quality education to one and all. I provide quality education to children of Class 6 to 12 absolutely free of cost through my website www.examfear.com. Examfear.com is a one-stop online platform that provides a complete educational package. It has a simple 4-step learning process:

· Watch educational video lessons

· Ask your questions

· Refer last minute revision notes

· Take a Test to evaluate yourself

All contents on ExamFear.com are available to students free of cost. I have already created more than 4500 video lessons so far on Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology. There are more than 1.1 lakh subscribers on my YouTube channel.

I started creating ExamFear videos in July, 2011 while I was working as a Senior Quality Analyst at HP (Hewlett Packard) Bangalore. I have always been very passionate about teaching. I wanted to teach & reach the masses. Being in the IT industry, I felt that I can make use of Internet to teach & reach millions of students throughout the world. Sometime during 2011, I came across my maid who often complained that her kids who were studying in a small school in their native town were deprived of quality education & therefore could not clear their exams. This incident touched me and made me think that money is a barrier to a lot of people who cannot afford expensive schools or colleges. I could sense that a lot of organization which provided quality education was not affordable to many; on the other hand there were affordable organizations which unfortunately could not provide quality education. Therefore, I decided to provide quality education free of cost through my website www.examfear.com.

With time, I realized that the number of students using ExamFear.com was increasing. I received numerous emails which showed how people from small towns & villages and poor families are being benefitted with ExamFear. I felt immense pleasure & satisfaction seeing the impact of ExamFear. I finally resigned my job in 2014, and started providing free education through ExamFear.com full time.

Impact of ExamFear.com

My YouTube channel has more than 1.1 lakh subscribers today. The channel is flooded with appreciations from students, teachers & parents throughout the world. The first thing I do every morning when I start my work is to read the comments; which motivates me to work with more energy towards my goal of promoting free quality education. I receive numerous emails which show how people from small towns & villages and poor families are being benefitted with ExamFear. A lot of teachers and parents also refer ExamFear.com for better understanding which helped them guide their children. “I am from poor family my parents will not send me any tution.... ur explanation videos help me much more. Hartfull tahnks to you madem. ur like a saraswati devi for me” as posted by Ismail. Another student, Abu talha shared with us “I scored 98 in my physics exam because of you!!! u just rock”

Receiving such comments from the viewers of ExamFear.com is my reward. A lot of students like Manoj Kumar share their success story with us ” I m so thankful to you ... pls continue ths for free . Bcoz of this website my frnd cracked mbbs entrance after 6 years ... to accomplish his dream ... his dream got hope after seeing this website”

I am totally confident and motivated to bring about a positive change in the education sector in this era of Digital India. I do not want students to study for the fear of exams anymore. Education is all about learning new things and understanding the concepts. As I always say, if concepts are clear, students will anyways clear their exams. ExamFear is geared up to remove the fear of exams in students.

ExamFear has already reached all parts of the country wherever Internet has reached. I will make sure that we find out ways to reach more remote areas and educate everyone. I am sure that an educated nation would be an enlightened one, which would make a better tomorrow.

I am extremely glad and honored that I have been recognized as one of the “100 women Achievers” of the country to be invited for the felicitation ceremony at the Rashtrapati Bhawan, New Delhi. The story of ExamFear.com has been covered in a lot of newspapers, magazines & journals. Refer http://www.examfear.com/media for more details on Media & Press.

The day of December 10 of 1993 was a special day decided by the destiny when a premature girl baby was born in Jaipur , Rajasthan. At the time of birth, her weight was just 1.600 kg. only and number of precautions were advised by the Doctors for her survival . Her parents put their all possible efforts with extra care to look after their daughter for her survival . Though she was their second daughter , but that was hardly matter for them.

No one was aware about her fortune that one she would be not only National GOLD Medalist( Twice) first at the age of 18 years , but an International player and Medalist also in such a hard, tough and powerful sport of Martial art – Muay Thai (Kick Boxing).As the water flow cannot be stopped from mountains, she continued her journey in establishing more and more milestones on her path and became BLACK BELT ( Korea) of Taekwondo and further achieved National GOLD Medals ( Twice) in such a Technical Martial Art.

There was a long journey behind this , which she started at the age of 6 years ( 3rd standard, in 2001) learning Taekwondo during her schooling at Jaipur. But there was no continuity in training, as arrangement of the trainer was on the mercy of school administration. Though she was very good player of Basketball and Cricket , but she focused on Martial Art as a passion and took the training from local coaches to establish herself.

As she was involved in playing different Martial Arts like JUDO , KARATE and MUAY THAI , she played all these at state and national level through her college time , where she was pursuing B. Com. Here again she was supposed to take a decision to continue Muay Thai after her selection in Rajasthan state team for National championship , organized by Muay Thai India ( MTI) at Hyderabad in 2012 . This was the moment , which changed her life when she bagged GOLD Medal for her state at National level . Also she was declared MUAY THAI QUEEN of India -2012. With these achievements, she came in limelight , as she had become Rajasthan state Record Holder as First National Gold Medalist ( both in Men and Women Category ). This achievement opened the doors for her to go ahead to International platform .

श्रीमती मोनिका पुरोहित : मूक बधिर बच्चों के शिक्षण प्रशिक्षण व् पुनर्वास का कार्य

इंदौर में जन्मी  और  स्थापित  मोनिका  की कहानी  किसी फ़िल्मी कथा में सुपर हीरो की एंट्री की तरह है। सन् 2000  में  अखबार में मेट्रोमोनियल साईट पर भोपाल के ज्ञानेंद्र पुरोहित  ने विज्ञापन दिया की ऐसी लड़की जो मूक और बधिर लोगो के लिए सोशल वर्क करने की  इच्छुक हो  केवल वही अपना बायो डेटा भेजे।  ज्ञानेंद्र पुरोहित  के बड़े भाई मूक बधिर थे और उनकी एक दुर्घटना में मृत्यु के कारण ज्ञानेंद्र व्यथित थे।  मोनिका ने ज्ञानेंद्र के जीवन में प्रवेश इसी उददेश के साथ लिया की उनको अब  सारा जीवन मूक बधिरों की सेवा व सहायता करते हुए बिताना है। लोगो ने मोनिका को ताने मारे की वो अच्छी खासी HR की पोस्ट छोड़कर गूंगे बहरो के बीच अपना जीवन बर्बाद करना चाहती हैं।  मोनिका ने बिना  किसी बात पर विचलित हुए  मूक बधिर विषय पर  B ed  व  M ed  कर लिया और सन्  2000 में  पति द्वारा स्थापित "आनंद सर्विस सोसाइटी"   में इन लोगो के लिए कार्य करना पारम्भ कर दिया।  मोनिका मूक व बधिरों को शिक्षित करने का कार्य करने लगीं।  
                      2006  में  एक 17  बर्षीय मूक बधिर युवती के 3 वर्षीय पुत्र की उसकी गोद में ही हत्या कर दी गयी।  युवती बेहद डरी हुई व व्यथित थी इस घटना ने मोनिका को हिलाकर रख दिया।  मोनिका ने उस युवती और पुलिस के बीच ट्रांसलेटर का काम किया और न्याय पाने में उसकी सहायता की। इसके साथ ही मोनिका ने अपने पति के साथ मिलकर  इंदौर में भारत के पहले " एम पी  मूक  बधिर  पोलिस केंद्र " की स्थापना की और पोलिस कोर्ट व मूक बधिरों  के बीच   एक ट्रांसलेटर की तरह कार्य करना आरम्भ कर दिया।   मध्य प्रदेशमें इस केंद्र के हेल्प  लाइन सेंटर स्थापित होने लगे। मोनिका की एक छोटी सी पहल ने बड़ा रूप ले लिया और जल्दी ही लगभग 356  केस रजिस्टर्ड हुए।  भारत के लगभग ७८ लाख मूक और बधिर इस सेवा के आरम्भ होते ही लाभान्वित होने लगे।  मोनिका को कोर्ट ने व पोलिस ने "साइलेंट लेंगुएज एक्सपर्ट " के रूप में अडॉप्ट कर लिया और सम्प्पूर्ण भारत से उनको पोलिस व कानून की मूक बधिर मामलो से सम्बंधित  कार्रवाहियों में  सहायता के लिए बुलाया जाने लगा।  मोनिका के पति ज्ञानेंद्र ने कोर्ट कचहरी के मामलो में स्वयं को सशक्त बनाने के लिए वकालत कर डाली और मोनिका अब अपने पति  की सहायता से मूक बधिर लोगो के केस भी लड़ने लगीं । मूक बधिर लड़कियों के गेंग रेप जैसे मामलो में बहुत बार जान की धमकी मिलने पर भी मोनिका पीछे नहीं हटीं और उनको न्याय दिलवाया।  
             

2010 में मोनिका ने अलीराजपुर से 65 मूक बधिर ढूंढ निकाले जिस जिले की  लिट्रेसी मात्र 21% थी। अब मोनिका का उद्देश्य  मूक बधिरों की सहायता करना व उनको शिक्षा देना नहीं रह गया था बल्कि वो इन लोगो को समाज में स्थापित भी कर देना चाहती थी।  इसलिए उन्होंने भारत सरकार के सामने अन्य भाषाओँ की तरह "साइलेंट साइन लेंगुएज " को भी आधिकारिक तोर पर भारत की अन्य भाषाओँ में शामिल किये जाने की पहल की।  उन्होंने वंदे मातरम " राष्ट्रीय गीत को साइन लेंगुएज में मूक व बधिरों के लिए कम्पोज़ किय। साथ ही राष्ट्रीय गीत "जन गन मन " को भी अपने पति श्री ज्ञानेंद्र के साथ मिलकर कमोज किया और प्रधानमंत्री के समक्ष प्रस्तुत किया।  अमिताभ बच्चन ने एक टीवी शो में स्वयं आगे आकर मोनिका व उनके प्रयासों को सराहा और मोनिका के कार्यो से प्रेरणा  पाकर मूक बधिरों  की साइलेंट लैंग्वेज में उनके लिए गीत प्रस्तुत किया।  हर साल मोनिका की आनंद संस्था मूक व बधिर लोगो का एक परिचय  सम्मेलन  आयोजित करवाती है जो अंधे, मूक व बधिरों को सामान्य वैवाहिक जीवन जीने के लिए   प्रेरित करती है।  

              2016  में मोनिका के भागीरथी प्रयासों  को  राष्ट्रपति द्वारा सम्मानित किया गया और मोनिका भारत की प्रथम 100 सशकत महिलाओं में शामिल की गईं।  समाज से व सम्पूर्ण राष्ट्र से उनके  कार्यो को ढेर सारे सम्मान  व पुरस्कार प्राप्त हुए  . मोनिका आज भारत  के इन मूक बधिर नागरिकों को उनका सम्मान और पहचान दे देने के  लिए अनवरत कार्य कर रहीं हैं।  जो कभी मोनिका व उनके प्रयासों का मज़ाक बनते थे आज मोनिका को एक सितारा बनकर चमकते हुए देख रहे हैं।
