Aadishakti Jwala Devi Intermediate College

Aadishakti Jwala Devi Intermediate College is located in Belamundi Badhaiya, which is a bit outside the main part of Allahabad. The zip code is 212107. It is a rural area, so things move a bit slower around here compared to the city center. The college is a big part of the local landscape for the people living nearby. We have a lot of younger students since it is an intermediate college. You can hear them running around during the breaks from quite a distance. The building is made of brick and cement, and we try to keep it painted, though the dust from the roads makes it hard to keep it looking clean. Most of the teachers come in from nearby villages or from the city. We have a simple routine where the gates open early, assembly happens, and then it is just classes until the afternoon. The playground is mostly just a patch of dirt where the kids play cricket or sit in groups when they have free time. There is a small shop nearby where everyone gets their snacks and tea. We do not have a big fancy office, just a room with some desks and a couple of old fans that creak a bit when they are on high speed. It is an honest place where people work hard and the students mostly listen to their elders. We are just a local school for the families here.
