At the programme, it was informed that there are no vendors for the ‘Satata Store’. Students of the school collect their necessary materials by depositing money at the cash counter on their own initiative. For this reason, ’Satata Sangha’ is being formed in these schools under the supervision of ACC.
The main objective of this store is to teach honesty to children from school age. This grant is given to school principals for the purchase of products of Satata Store.
Anti-Corruption Commission, Jhenaidah and Magura District Anti-Corruption Committee in collaboration with Magura district administration organised the programme.
