The family meeting of the month was held on 29th Oct 2019. Meeting coordinator of the evening Rtn. Rooma Iyengar put in great thought and effort to make it an interesting and fun gathering. Rtn. Rooma took us all on a journey, celebrating not only Diwali with the colorful Rangoli and Diya but also the October fest of Germany. The pictures and stories she shared from her recent visit were joyous to experience. The skit - Unsung heroines - planned, written and directed by Rtn. Rooma, Rtn. Shyla Rao and Ann. Sashikala, was delivered with impactful performances by the lady Rotarians, Anns, Annetts and John. Rtn. Geetha Kaushik sang beautiful songs. It was a pleasure to host the guests of honor, Rtn. Dr. Sesappa Rai (AG) and Rtn. Subramanya Basri (District Trainer). A surprise pop quiz about Germany at the end of the meeting was fun and gave a chance for everyone to participate. Rtn. Rooma made it more exciting as she brought along goodies from the October fest to share for every correct answer. It was a fun filled meeting with the Rotary Family.

Rotary Information by Rtn Rathnakar Udyavar

Adult LiteracyAt the recently held Rotary India Literacy Mission (RILM)Ignite meet in Kolkata, RIPM Shekhar Mehta said that today India’s literacy stands only at 74 per cent, but 96 per cent of our children go to school. “Then why are we still at 74 per cent? This is because we have a whopping number of 25 crore adult illiterates! The pity was that in the next census, this number might still remain illiterate, taking the outer limit of our literacy rate 80 per cent at the most, he said. “Our programme with the GoI is to strike at the heart of this and if we can reach out to the numbers we want to, our literacy rate will jump from 74 to 90 per cent.

And if you cross 90 per cent, you are among the literate nations of the world. Mehta announced that “very soon, hopefully, we will have a programme with the GoI, along the lines of polio. The draft has been approved by the NITI Aayog and is now with the Cabinet.” Once this MoU is signed with the GoI, this “will be the biggest step anybody has taken towards making India literate.” Mehta added that at the just concluded executive committee meet “we’ve decided that by 2025, come what may, Rotary India will put its best efforts to make India totally literate, which means taking the literacy rate up to the 95 per cent level.” •Source:Rotary news Oct 2019
