Hindustan Zinc Supports more than 4,000 Students through Shiksha Sambal Diwali Camp 2024
 
Hindustan Zinc Limited, India’s largest and the world’s second-largest integrated zinc producer, successfully concluded its Shiksha Sambal Diwali Camp 2024, supporting more than 4,000 students from underprivileged rural hinterland across its operational areas. This initiative, part of Hindustan Zinc’s Siksha Sambhal program, an education-focused CSR program, has been operating in Rajasthan since 2008, uplifting the lives of over 2 lakh children annually in underserved rural areas.
The purpose of the camps is to support first-generation learners who are likely to opt out of pursuing studies and a fulfilling career, owing to financial and social constraints. This year’s camp took place in two phases offering academic assistance to Class IX and X students who are in the final stages of finishing their schooling during the festive break. The camps provided support in foundational subjects such as reading, writing, mathematics, and science through structured sessions, featured workbook exercises and practical lab work for science students, along with enhanced library work for mathematics and English.
By focusing on these core subjects, the camp aimed to strengthen student’s understanding and boost their academic performance. Additionally, the program emphasized consistent attendance to maximize learning outcomes, ensuring that every student could benefit from the comprehensive educational support provided. The Shiksha Sambal Diwali Camp 2024 in partnership with Vidhya Bhawan Society reached students across various locations, including Udaipur, Rajsamand, Chittorgarh, Ajmer, and Agucha in Rajasthan. Overall, the camp successfully impacted students, providing essential academic support during a crucial time in their educational journeys.
Hindustan Zinc’s Shiksha Sambal Program is integral to the broader commitment to uplift underprivileged children through education in rural Rajasthan. The company recently signed an MoU with Department of Education, Rajasthan committing an investment of ₹36 crores over the next five years to enhance educational development in the state. The company has established over 1400 Nand Ghars across Rajasthan and Uttarakhand to promote early childhood development of rural children, which has benefitted over 2.5 Lakh women and children. Over the years, the company has significantly transformed the educational landscape of the state with other initiatives such as Unchi Udaan, which supports aspiring IIT candidates from low-income backgrounds, and Jeevan Tarang, which empowers children with disabilities.
