so for the next three years, we were organizing exam in science and arts subjects. those questions papers would be innovative, set up by the alumni of prestigious Universities of Kolkata. My school Mc William H.S. School allowed as to conduct the exam on Sunday.me and Sourit was out of town as I was studying MCA and searching for a job in Kolkata, and Sourit was Studying literature at Presidency University. Though he was in charge of setting the questions papers. I was just advertising about it on social media, and one thing I forgot to mention is that we were doing these mostly from our pocket money.I had to sacrifice the money I kept for buying Digit magazine. anyway, next year I got a job in a startup so now I could afford to buy Computer magazines too. The ground level works were done by Pronobesh, Nabakumar and Manan, from printing questions to arranging and conducting the exam flawlessly.
On the third year, we decided to conduct free coaching classes as arranging those exams were becoming a challenging task, and we also found that those students from the privileged class were doing the well and were getting the prize money, there is nothing wrong in doing well in the exam but for us, it was carrying coals to Newcastle.
so Nabkumar and Pronobesh started taking free classes after their work, Naba is a school teacher and Pronobesh is a banker. That classes were conducted for underprivileged students at a place near the Town.
this system continued till 2015 , after that there due to unavailability of classroom ,it was discontinued until it emerged as another Organization Named "Roddur" the sunshine on 2016.
Pronobesh took command of the new organization and recruited volunteers for those teaching posts. One Woman from the underprivileged class let us use her unused land as the classroom.
so there were members form young generations , those enthusiastic youth community who were helping us in teaching the students time to time.
During Saraswati Puja
Roddur's moto is to help students to think out of the box, so there used to be Yoga and karate class along with Drama workshops. Our aim is to make those capable of fighting any odds in life.
Roddur conducted various awareness programmes to spread the light of knowledge and scientific thinking. Now Due to Covid19, there is a pause in those activities, but soon those activities will be resumed.Right now we are working on registering the organisation.
A lot of things yet to write down about this organization. I will write those in the next article. The focus would be on the education system we want to revolutionize through making small but continuous changes in our mindset and in society.
