and fulfill it”. The participants were girls who are school dropouts and are enrolled
in the bridge course classes conducted by Tata Metaliks in collaboration with a

due to financial, social reasons, have a passion to dream big and achieve them.

students. Employees also interacted with the girls and explained them the importance
of education and teacher’s role in helping one become a good human being.
