Origin

In the summer of 2002, a few students of Govt Degree college Bhaderwah led by Mr. sadaket Malik and others got together to think of ways in which they could play a role in the development of education in hilly terrain of Bhalessa Doda of J&K state.

These young people shared the belief that education is a critical requisite and an effective catalyst for social and economic change in the area. Basic education became the agenda for the action group that emerged from this gathering. The group was named NSWA to represent the hope that had brought these individuals together and the hope that they aimed to bring into the lives of youth of the area. In that summer of 2002, mission was born at the Govt Degree College Bhaderwah Doda J&K. Since its inception NGO organised mass cultivation programmes, Debates, Peace Mission rallies. In the summer of 2006, the NGO moved its proposal to IGNOU Vice chancellor for the setting up of IGNOU Special Study centre in Bhalessa. IGNOU SSC was set up in 2006. 

Bhalessa Educational Profile

The institutions sepulchral in the area have been to be credited in this direction.

Bhalessa- nestling amongst tall alpine as well as cliffy turf of Doda in Jammu as well as Kashmir state of India Himalayan region, off sharpened tall where skies have been the limits, it is many distinguished municipality called Bhalessa.
Where spirituality attunes the skies lazy in reserve castes, believe as well as colours as well as upon top of all religions, it is here, which is Bhalessa. It is Bhalessa where Ruby Gems upon alpine slopes glows as well as glitters as well as marble of Thathri wink amidst dense, vibrant, sensuous immature uplands it is here which Perched firmly between the highly evolved snow-sprinkled strong Himalayan towering chain, the emerald blue skies peeping by the chinks of the clouds, the tall coniferous trees moving to the stroke of the gusts of wind, all precipitate in to the pleasantly smile, combining the poetic Bhalessa.
Once upon the time, the preparation was rare, there was the singular initial propagandize during Kalgoni Bhalessa where in singular people got enrolled to get education. Ghulam Rasool Azad as well as Munshi Mohammed Anwer were the initial to get preparation from this initial school. Both Munshi as well as Azad Munshi Sahib complicated during the Government Primary propagandize in Kilhotran as well as afterwards were sent to Bhaderwah for serve studies.
Presently the area seemed full of unrestrained as well as clothes to recieve preparation instituted by the state as well as centre.

Besides this, the tattering tutorial affairs of the area was made by the afterwards Director Education Ghulam Rasool Azad who belongs from the area. Packed with superb achievements, Ghulam Rasool Azad left no mill unturned to revamp the preparation complement of the area. As sick fitness would have it this mythological male not remained between the people.

At this moment, Bhalessa has been suggested as the heart of preparation as the key of latest institutions of aloft guidance as well as increases procedure upon the report record as well as veteran education. IGNOU as well as the little alternative organisations have proposed churning multiform industrially employable graduates from the area.

The tattering tutorial affairs have been changed after G R Azad era. The people seemed meddlesome to entrance the farming report centres in this rocky terrain.

            The environment up of Government Higher delegate schools in Gowari, Sinoo, Jakyas, Gandoh, Malanoo has had the good stress over the past 5 years as the people of these areas suspicion of aloft objectives.

            The internal people were perfectionist evident environment up of Government Degree College during Bhalessa as well as the supervision eventually determined the same. IGNOU as well as the little alternative organizations similar to ITI proposed churning multiform graduates in different disciplines is an rare expansion towards the preparation of this rocky terrain. IGNOU set up the centre in Bhalessa in the year 2006 as well as was galvanized by the internal rank as well as file as well as administration.  

Apart from tutorial as well as vocational side, there has been an rare expansion of Maddersa’s in this makeshift area. There is taking flight waves in madersa education, as is being witnessed today. The Madersa’s increasing in number.

Interestingly, the series rose to 10. Besides nurturing the Islamic clerics from these Madersa’s together with Hafiz as well as Ulema, these institutions seemed increasingly imparting complicated preparation additionally during the settlement of alternative supervision schools underneath the ambit of the state government. 

Innovative madrasa’s similar to the Jamia Gunyat ul Uloom have been increasingly manifest today, Jamia Gunyat ul Uloom Bhatyas determined in the year 1983 as well as was declared after Hazrat Abdul Gani Sadiqui. The madersa is managed by Gunyat Ul Uloom Trust Bhalessa is the largest Institution imparting Madersa as well as tutorial preparation to the students of rocky turf of Bhalessa.

 It now has some-more than the thousand students upon the rolls. Patterned upon the Dar ul Uloom Deoband model, it is the singular of the couple of madrasas in the state of Jammu as well as Kashmir which yield Islamic preparation compartment the Alim Fazil or specialization level.

 Besides Jamia, there have been multiform alternative maddersa’s similar to Maddersa Asrar Ul Uloom during Neeli Bhalessa declared after Shah Asrar ud Din Bagdadi (RA). Other Madersas are:-  Maddersa Anwar-e-Madina Gandoh, Maddersa Aweesya Ameenya Dhraveri, Gulshan-e-Madina during Dhadkai hamlet, Akhyar ul Uloom during Kahara, Gayas Ul Uloom during Gingota hamlet, Inam ul Uloom during Donadi, Ume-Sadiqa during Kilhotran, as well as Zia-ul Uloom during Thathri.

            In these madrasah’s, the tutorial preparation envisaged by the state preparation dialect is being supposing upon top of the Islamic as well as Arabic studies similar to recitation of Quran popularly well known as Hifz as well as Ulema to turn isamic clerics.

            There were multiform forces during work assistance to emanate tutorial consider to consider to report to the elites stopping the villages nearby,  Such forces embody NGOs framed by egghead strata.

            The NGO enlightenment seemed the conduct tall Educational Environmental amicable sports as well as informative multitude Bhalessa, National Students Welfare Association Bhalessa, Kohistan Association Bhalessa. These NGOs endangered themselves in mass civilised world programmes together with preparation we discuss here the grant of these NGOs here,

            Over 10 years all these NGOs proposed giveaway preparation camping’s/ summer schools for the needy students of the area, NGO- Kohistan Association, NHRDS has to be credited in this citation as the NGO orderly 6 giveaway preparation camps in Bhalessa in early 5 years.

            NGO National Students Welfare Association Bhalessa is carrying the large grant for environment up of an IGNOU Special investigate centre in Bhalessa as well as putting onward the direct for environment up of Government Degree College during Kilhotran.  

                        On the alternative hand, In the summer of 1996, the couple of NGOs  got together to consider of ways in which they could fool around the purpose in the growth of preparation in rocky turf of Bhalessa Doda of J&K state. These immature people common the idea which preparation is the vicious claim as well as an in effect matter for amicable as well as mercantile shift in the area. Educational recognition became the bulletin for the movement organisation which emerged from this gathering, to paint the goal which had brought these people together as well as the goal which they directed to move in to the lives of girl of the area.

            The classification similar to Kohistan Association headed by Ghulam Hussain Bhall, National Students Welfare Association as well as NHRD Society headed by Basharat Hussain Malik managed giveaway preparation camps for the students who were incompetent to understand their education. The camps were hghly permitted by internal erudite encampment similar to Shoket Ali Mattoo as well as Noor ul Hassan Wani. 

As distant as initial preparation is concerned, there have been dual apart tutorial zones tranquil by ZEO Gandoh covering all area of Gandoh, Neeli, Dudwar, Gowari, Jitota upto Khaljugasar Panchayat, as well as ZEO Bhatyas covering areas similar to Malanoo, Kahara, Jakyas upto halaran village.

On being stirred by the Tehsil Administration as well as Sub Divisional Megistrate Bhalessa, students as well as teachers of all these Institutions share the singular list upon the night before of Independence Day celebrations where they broach nationalistic speeches.As per the rough consult conducted by internal NGO-National Students’ Welfare Association (NSWA) Bhalessa, there have been —–schools wherein the students have to stay underneath open air to get education. Some such schools have been possibly carrying no structure or shop-worn infrastructure.

            Ironically, The Government Middle School in Manoie Bhatyas is the sworn statement of the state of contemptible affairs as the students has to stay underneath the path of inlet to get instructions from their teachers. The propagandize structure is all shop-worn as well as students in the bad continue conditions have to leave their studies. In summer it becomes formidable for trusting bad young kids to stay in the propagandize overdue to the unsound infrastructure similar to buildings.

The infrastructure of the many of these schools is in the bad shape. Some schools have been but buildings as well as the little have been not in teachers.

Very recently, the supervision underneath the care of the afterwards Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad as well as Mohammed Sharief Niaz MLA Bhaderwah authorised the singular Degree College during Kilhotran, which as well is opposed unsound infrastructure comforts similar to accommodation, the college is being run from singular or dual bedrooms vacated by Government Higher delegate propagandize kilhotran, as well as eventually the propagandize has turn chase of unsound infrastructure forcing the students to lay in an open air.
