UP School Chalo Abhiyan 2026: CM Yogi Adityanath Launches Second Phase From Saharanpur
UP CM Yogi Adityanath launched the second phase of School Chalo Abhiyan to enrol every eligible child and bring dropouts back to school.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday launched the second phase of the 'School Chalo Abhiyan' from Saharanpur, marking another step in the state's efforts to ensure that every eligible child is enrolled in school during the new academic session.
The statewide campaign is aimed at achieving 100 per cent school enrolment while encouraging children who are currently out of school to join the formal education system. Officials said the initiative forms a key part of the government's broader objective of improving access to education alongside overall development.
The second phase of the campaign was formally launched at the CM Model Composite School in Ismailpur village, where the Chief Minister interacted with students and distributed textbooks, school bags and stationery to support them as they begin the new academic year.

Second Phase Focuses on Bringing Every Child to School
According to officials, this phase of the campaign will prioritise identifying children who are not attending school and ensuring they are admitted to nearby educational institutions.
The drive will also focus on encouraging students who have dropped out to return to their studies. Alongside enrolment efforts, awareness programmes will be organised to motivate parents about the importance of regular schooling and uninterrupted education for their children.
Authorities believe that community participation will play an important role in making the campaign successful and reaching children who are yet to be enrolled.
Textbooks and School Bags Distributed to Students
During the launch event in Saharanpur, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath distributed textbooks, school bags and other learning materials to children beginning the new academic session.
The programme also recognised the contribution of educators, with the district's best-performing headmasters being honoured for their efforts in improving school education and student outcomes.
The event highlighted the government's emphasis on strengthening the quality of education while ensuring that children have access to essential learning resources.
Community Participation to Strengthen the Campaign
Officials said the second phase of the School Chalo Abhiyan will involve elected representatives, School Management Committees and local communities to encourage greater public participation.
The campaign will not only identify children who are outside the education system but will also create awareness among families about the long-term benefits of education. Bringing dropout students back into classrooms remains one of the major priorities of the initiative.

Through this initiative, the Uttar Pradesh government hopes to increase enrolment, reduce dropout rates, and make school education more accessible to children across the state, while encouraging greater involvement from parents and local communities.
