Baranagar Math was started anew in the year 2004 as a new Branch centre of Ramakrishna Math & Ramakrishna Mission, Belur Math long after Swami Vivekananda and other Disciples of Sri Ramakrishna left this holy site in the year 1892. It was observed that more than 100 slum pockets lying around this centre. The drive for education to the slum children, the first-generation learners, as well as free medical treatment for all has been taken up as the first priority of social service to the people. The primary school was opened to impart education to the children, both boys and girls. Primarily there were about 10 students, the parents of whom were convinced to join our school to avail free education facilities. Over the years the number of students have been increased to 419 by this time.  But the existing school is running in a small building inadequate for sitting of all the students at a time. Therefore, the school has been running in two shifts, the Morning and Day sections. Being satisfied with the progress of studies in this school, the demand for admission of a greater number of students is coming up. But at present no more students can be admitted in the existing school premises for shortage of accommodation. The Out Patient Clinic is also being run in an inadequate space and needs to be shifted for better treatment facilities to more number of patients.

Under this situation, the dream project for construction of new School and Medical Unit building (G+5 storeyed) at the prime location of Ratan Babu Road has been taken up. The plan for this building has been sanctioned by Kolkata Municipal Corporation and the construction work is started already. The piling work for the building has been started in May, 2022 and it is in progress. It has been decided that at the beginning, the construction for ground floor and first floor is to be completed by December, 2023. The ground floor and first floor construction will be covering the area of 5755 Sqft. each. The total estimated cost being Rs. 86,58,000 for ground floor and Rs. 66,85,000 for first floor along with the additional cost of Rs.1,50,00,000 (Total cost is Rs. 3,03,43,000) for piling work .

Meanwhile, Rs. 2.00 crore has already been received from the donors, patrons and well-wishers whereas more than Rs.1.00 crore is needed to complete the construction work up to first floor.

Under the circumstances, we would like to submit our earnest appeal to the devotees and patrons to join hands for implementing the project as per the schedule. 

Hope you will kindly extend your generous donation for this noble purpose.
