Shambhu a school teacher thought
children differently and opened a
children’s library. He started teaching
weak and poor children in the library.
He helped the children for their
education. Most of his students have
become doctors, engineers, etc. Later
the same students have established
‘Guru Shambhu Trust’ and enlarged
the children library as ‘Guru Shambhu

Bal Pustakalaya’ (Guru Shambhu children’s Library). People remember
Guru Shambhu for his contributions in the educational sector.
Likewise, Dr Sherpa checked poor patient every Saturday without charging

a fee in his health clinic. Similarly, Engineer Ramnath had designed the
new village structure to protect villagers from frequent landslides in the
village.
Inspiring from such good people, we, the students of Grade V had also
decided to do something good for the village. So, we talked first to our
social studies teacher. He suggested us a concept to Make our village better

by ourselves. So, we planned to make our village an ‘alcohol free zone’.
For this, we had first formed a Children Club at the school to implement
the program systematically. According to the plan, we had conducted a
rally with different slogans and play cards in the village. We used to raise
voices against alcohol and its bad impacts every Saturday for two hours
in the morning. We had also distributed pamphlets and pasted posters
