Because of that plan every individual realised to think the education was his
responsibility. That was the plan for growth of schools. Conference were
conducted and donations were collected from public. About four crores of rupees
were donated by public. Poor students were given free books and slates. Lakhs of
poor students were benefited.
A scheme for giving free uniform to poor
children were organised and implemented . Kamaraj wanted to avoid the partiality
between the poor and the rich students. Result was free uniform scheme. This
stopped the inferiority complex among the students.
Kamaraj wanted to give free education to
all the students. He decided to give free education up to eleventh standard to
all the poor students in the year 1960. The annual income of the parents of
those students who get the concession should be less than 1200/- . He modified
this order in 1962-63 . Children of the parents whose income was Rs 1500/- per
annum could also get free education upto 11th Std., Apart from this order were
issued that children of N.G.O's employees of Panchayat Unions may also get free
education upto High School education.
