Education hub

The village of Bagar is in the Jhunjunu district of Rajasthan and has a population of approximately 10,000. The Jhunjhunu region is famous for being the ancestral home of many well known Marwari business families, including the Piramals, Lakshmi Mittal, and the Birla family todi family lineages. Many of these families have invested heavily in schooling in the region. As such, Bagar, strategically placed between Jhunjhunu city and Chirawa city, is known as a learning hub. It currently houses 32 educational institutions for both local citizens as well as residential students from neighboring towns and cities. However, the proliferation of schools does not always equate to top quality learning; there is great potential for improvement in the standards and content of education in Bagar. The growing willingness by villagers to pay for private education has led to the opportunistic creation of many new schools in recent years. The town is also viewed as transitory: the population fluctuates with the school year
