QRY: Secondary and Higher Secondary School Initiative of Nutan Bal Shikshan Sangh(NBSS) at Kosbad.
Set up of Infrastructure facility at NBSS
NBSS was established in 1926 by Padma Vibhushan Tarabai Modak. In 1945 Padmashri Anutai Wagh joined Tarabai Modak to start an experimental school for tribal children, at Kosbad, District Palghar. Balwadi (playschool) was set up in a thickly forested tribal area in Bordi. There was no road, electricity or any kind of communication. But need overrode inconveniences. There were eight tribal hamlets nearby and about a hundred children in need of education. The school was inaugurated by B G Kher, Chief Minister of the then Bombay Presidency on December 24, 1945. The centre moved to its present location in Kosbad Hill in 1957. Today NBSS still functions at Kosbad Hill, in Dahanu Taluka of Palghar district, in Maharashtra, as a guiding institution in pre-primary & primary education.
