| Student Grade | From class V (Five) to Graduation |
| Project Phase I | For 150 students. Completed in April 2004 |
| Project Phase II | For 650 students. Completed in May 2005 |
| Project Phase III | For 1800 students. Completed on May 2006 |
| Project Phase IV | For 2500 students. Will be completed by May 2007 |
This is on of the many good projects supported by MUKTI for the betterment of our society. Lack of education is one of the major causes of economic backwardness and helplessness of the people in Sunderbans, similar to the poorest regions of the world. Towards a goal of eradicating illiteracy in the region, and to encourage young talented children not only to complete school with good grades but also to go for graduate studies, MUKTI has been facilitating sponsorship of talented students.
This project is known as 'Talented Students Sponsorship'. To know more about this project please visit our TSS project home page by clicking here.

"I have dusty old textbooks stored away somewhere in my house: I don’t feel like selling them priced as useless paper, nor do I feel like putting them in the trash. Does this sound familiar? Then please bring them out ..."
