AJB Educational and Socio-economic Trust
Assam Jatiya Bidyalay Educational and Socio-economic Trust
is the parent body of
Assam Jatiya Bidyalay, a premier institution for primary and secondary education in
Assam, which was established in 1994. School education in children's mother tongue,
a universally accepted principle of pedagogy, is the essence of Assam Jatiya
Bidyalay. The foundation of Assam Jatiya Bidyalay contributed to the growth of
educational renaissance in Assam, leading to the establishment of more than 2000
schools named “Jatiya Bidyalays” across the state of Assam, most of which follow the
academic system of Assam Jatiya Bidyalay.
Apart from the running of Assam Jatiya Bidyalay, the AJB
Trust has published about
100 school textbooks, several works of non-fiction and research, and journals. The
Trust regularly conducts various training programs and workshops by inviting
resource persons from various fields for the enhancement of a scientific outlook and
all-round personality development of teachers and students. It also holds
state-level competitions in the fields of literature, debate, music, drama and
science projects.
Since 2008, the AJB Trust has been regularly awarding the
“Assam Jatiya Bidyalay
Fellowship” and the “Assam Jatiya Bidyalay Sanman” to various recognized and
under-recognized personalities who have contributed to society and excelled in
various fields of human endeavor.
