New Delhi [India], November 11: In a move to foster literacy and the joy of reading among school children, KAI India, the Indian arm of the esteemed 116-year-old Japanese KAI Group, has inaugurated a dedicated library at the Government Senior Secondary School (GSSS) Islampur, Gurugram. This initiative is part of KAI India’s community empowerment project, the KAI India Children Library Program, aimed at encouraging a sustained reading habit in school children through accessible, well-resourced library spaces.
The newly established library corner, which houses over 500 books, serves students from classes 6th to 12th. This installation follows similar initiatives by KAI India in Manipur, where libraries were established at Eastern Ideal High School, Imphal East, and Keishamthong High School, Imphal West, as part of the organization’s commitment to nurturing reading culture across various regions in India.
“We believe that access to books and a dedicated reading space can transform young minds,” said Mr Rajesh U. Pandya, Director of KAI India. “Through our Children Library Program, we aim to help students develop a love for reading and create a gateway to lifelong learning and personal growth. We are excited to see the enthusiasm of students here at GSSS Islampur and look forward to inspiring more young minds across the country.”
