A gentleman named Bharat Singhal who is employed in the electricity department in Mujaffarnagar has taken the courage with determination, commitment and dedication to impart education to the children free of cost after his office hours to poorest of the poor living under fly overs, roadsides and Jhuggi Jhopri clusters either begging or involved in scavenging to help their families sustain and survive.
Some of these children were unfortunately also drug addicts.
They are living in government shelters under extremely pitiable condition.
The students who are orphans or living with relatives in extreme poverty are also seeking education under the charge of Bharat Singhal.
There are children studying here who don’t have fathers and their mothers go to earn as maid servants in nearby localities.
At present there are sixty students being imparted free education by Mr. Singhal as he feels that in order to make them self reliant and empowered as they grow up it is necessary to educate them.

His contribution is undoubtedly highly inspirational which will give impetus to hundreds of other youths to follow his steps and impart education to he children of the have nots in the near future.
According to Bharat Singhal – a girl who used to sleep at the railway station and beg was admitted to the government Kasturba Gandhi Residential School.
A girl who used to live on the roadside was admitted to a government primary school.
An adult boy who used to collect garbage has been made a bike mechanic… I am helping poor children like me to move ahead in their lives. I do not have any NGO, institution or organisation said Bharat.
He further said : Earlier I had built a class room in my slum. But now due to increase in the number of children, I run my class in a hall near Muzaffarnagar railway station. I have never taken any money from anyone till date because the biggest donation in education is the donation of time. This is a small effort of mine to add colours to the lives of poor children… said Bharat Singhal while speaking to Uknationews.
