Tharuni is starting Gurukul branches at different places to educate and develop the skills of children who are unable to go to schools regularly due to extreme poverty conditions of parents and assisting them in their daily chores, looking after younger siblings of their family , make them attend the gurukul of Tharuni, in the evenings. The children learn basic education to read and write in a playful manner and music in the evenings. Tomorrow on 28th October Tharuni gurukul is being initiated at Nanda Naik Thanda in Geesukonda Mandal.
