India, 15 May 2025: Runaya, a prominent manufacturing venture with a strong emphasis on sustainability and innovation, has successfully concluded its education infrastructure project in Jharsuguda, Odisha. Focused on transforming rural education and strengthening community development, the initiative has delivered revitalised school infrastructure— that included improved learning spaces, upgraded sanitation, kitchen facilities, and a fully equipped library — aimed at fostering a safe, hygienic, inclusive, and future-ready environment for students.
As part of its commitment to empowering underserved communities, Runaya’s flagship grassroots initiative Project Laadli marked a major milestone with the completion of the Education Infrastructure Transformation Program across multiple schools in Jharsuguda — from primary to upper primary and high schools. By promoting access, equity, and empowerment, the initiative has directly benefited more than 351 students and staff, positively impacting over 3,560 lives across western Odisha.
The newly renovated school facilities were inaugurated by senior district officials, community leaders, school faculty, and Runaya leadership. To ensure the longevity and sustainability of these upgrades, a School Students Committee has been established under the guidance of the Headmaster and Sarpanch.
According to Jagannath Prasad Routray, CEO of Recycling Business, Runaya, "The completion of this project marks a significant milestone in our dedication to community-oriented education. Every Project Laadli refurbishment has sought to build inclusive environments where children, particularly girls, feel safe, inspired, and encouraged to attend school often. Every kid deserves good infrastructure; we don't think access to it is a privilege but rather a need. Building a future-ready generation will be aided by such small yet significant efforts.”
Anil Kumar Patel, Block Education Officer, Jharsuguda, remarked, "The initiatives of Runaya reach to strengthen school infrastructure in Dalki Primary School, Banjari UP School, Kurebaga UP School and Purna High School under Jharsuguda Block are a powerful example of how corporate responsibility can drive meaningful change on the grassroots level. These efforts definitely help in improving overall facilities at grass root level, to build brighter futures. This initiative is enriching the lives of families and children, accelerating grassroots development, and reinforcing the district's commitment to education and hygiene. Such private sector leadership plays a vital role in shaping inclusive and empowered communities. I wish them continued success and strongly encourage more enterprises to join hands in driving forward the shared goal of Odisha's development.”
These initiatives reflect Runaya's unwavering commitment to India’s broader vision of ensuring a clean environment and inclusive education for every child. By addressing critical gaps in school infrastructure — particularly in hygiene and safety — Runaya is creating secure, supportive spaces that enable children to thrive.
Runaya Reach, the company’s CSR arm, continues to drive transformative community impact through initiatives spanning education, women’s empowerment, and environmental sustainability. Beyond the school renovation efforts in Odisha under Project Laadli, Runaya Reach has extended support to over 400 lives in Dadra & Nagar Haveli and, through Project Samvriddhi, aims to plant more than 600 trees across various locations in FY26.
