Project Mala School : Turkahan

Project Mala School, Village Turkahan is located in Mirzapur District., around 15 Kms from the main Mirzapur railway station. Turkahan school was started in 2005 in a small building consisting of two rooms. The school accommodated only 50 children at a time so a new batch could only be enrolled following the passing out of students after the three years course was completed.

On 10th February 2011, a new school building was inaugurated at Turkahan. This large school was constructed with finance from Baal Dan Charities, USA very near the existing school. The new school will accommodate 300 children. The size of the land is 85,000 sq. ft. which includes the building,a huge play ground for the children, and a vegetable garden.

Project Mala School Turkahan serves 7 villages within its 3 km radius. Most of the children walk to the school. The villages that are covered by Turkahan School are Turkahan, Rampur, Geruan, Dhanawal, Tanda, Dhokwa and Mahuano.
