K R R P Intermediate College

Our college is situated in Dasauti, right along the Meja Urja Nigam Road in Allahabad. Since we are on a main road that leads to the power plant, there is often a lot of traffic, with trucks and buses passing by all day long. The college itself is an intermediate school where we have many students from the local families in Dasauti and the nearby patches of houses. The building is a functional one, mostly brick and plaster, and it has a large gate that we open up every morning for the kids. The playground is a bit uneven, but the students don't seem to mind when they are playing during their lunch hour. Inside, the rooms are quite large with high ceilings to help with the heat. We have basic blackboards and rows of benches that have been repaired many times. The teachers usually gather in a small room to have their tea and talk about the day. It gets quite loud when the classes change or when school lets out for the day. Being near the Meja Urja Nigam means there is always a sense of activity in the air. We don't have many modern luxuries, just the basic stuff you need to run a school. The dusty road outside is just part of the daily landscape for us. We just keep our heads down and focus on the daily lessons and making sure the students are where they need to be.
