My message

Dear Children, you are all in the mission of learning. What learning will give?

"When learning is purposeful, creativity blossoms.

When the creativity blossoms, thinking emanates.

When thinking emanates, knowledge is fully lit.

When knowledge is lit, the society is enriched."

Partnership in rural development

I am very happy to be in the midst of the people belonging to the village Manjunathapura. Your desire to improve the quality of life in your village is indeed beautiful. BAIF is indeed a partner for you in your collective efforts to raise yourselves above the poverty line. The partnership of farmers and extension personnel has contributed well. I consider that this model can be replicated across the nation.
