The Private Schools and Children Welfare Association (PASWA) has urged the inclusion of the biography of Shibu Soren, a veteran tribal leader and former Jharkhand Chief Minister, into the state's school curriculum. PASWA believes his life story will inspire future generations with values of sacrifice and social justice.
Shibu Soren, known as 'Dishom Guru,' passed away at 81 in a Delhi hospital. His contributions to the state's creation and tribal rights movement remain influential. PASWA President Alok Kumar Dubey emphasizes the importance of teaching students about Soren's role in shaping Jharkhand's political identity.
PASWA plans to meet state officials to discuss the proposal's implementation. They suggest a phased inclusion of Soren's biography at different educational levels and propose academic events to honor his legacy. This initiative aims to connect students with their roots and inspire leadership qualities.
