  Pustakopahar – A Gift of Knowledge

               “Books are a uniquely portable magic.” – Stephen King

Pustakopahar, meaning "Gift of Books", is a noble initiative aimed at spreading the joy of reading and learning among children and communities. This program encourages students, teachers, and society members to donate books — old or new — that can benefit others in need of educational and recreational reading materials.

The essence of Pustakopahar lies in the belief that knowledge grows when shared. Through this initiative, books that may otherwise sit unused on shelves find new life in the hands of eager readers. It fosters a culture of generosity, empathy, and academic curiosity among students.

Whether it’s a storybook that sparks imagination, a textbook that strengthens learning, or a biography that inspires — every book donated under Pustakopahar becomes a building block for someone’s brighter future.

Let us come together to donate, share, and spread the light of education through this meaningful campaign. Because every book gifted is a step toward a more literate and empowered society.
