Step into the story of Loksadhana, where generations have grown through classrooms and community, from early lessons to livelihoods and from curiosity to confidence.
education
Education has always been at the heart of Loksadhana. What began as a single classroom in Chikhalgaon has today grown into primary, secondary, and higher secondary schools that nurture thousands of rural children. For us, learning is never just about marks. It is about confidence, skills, and community. Generations of students have walked through our doors, carrying forward both knowledge and resilience.

secondary school
We started with Lokmanya Tilak Prathamik Vidyamandir, An experimental school where children from 1st to 4th studied together. With no heavy bags or homework, learning meant puzzles, play, and shared responsibility. Older children often taught the younger, creating confidence and empathy in every lesson.

This school has shaped two generations of my family. My mother once studied here when teachers supported her with books and clothes despite financial struggles. Years later, I found the same encouragement, scoring 91.40% in exams.
