100 day READ campaign Guidelines January 2022 to April 2022

The Department of School Education and Literacy, Ministry of Education, GoI has decided to launch an initiative “ 100 days Reading Campaign “ with the objective of NIPUN Bharat.

It is a fact that reading is the fundamental condition of students as lifelong learners. If we inculcate a habit of reading from formative years, they will become independent readers and lay down a strong foundation for lifelong learning. NEP-2020 further emphasises that the highest priority must be to achieve universal foundational literacy and numeracy in primary schools. Children who read often become better learners, which leads to success in school and other areas of life. n view of the above Samagra Shiksha, Govt of Andhra Pradesh is decided to launch the 100 day READ (Read Enjoy and Develop) campaign in all the schools under all managements for the classes III to VIII in the State
