Now the Loktak Lake has added a feather to its cap by supporting the first of its kind Floating Elementary School.

The school was recently inaugurated at Langolsabi Leikai of Champu Khangpok village in Manipur.

It aims to provide education to drop outs students, who were rendered homeless due to the recent evacuation of phumdis.

The school has been opened under the initiative undertaken by All Loktak Lake Fisherman’s Union with the support of an NGO – People Resources Development Association (PRDA).

The school will not only cater to the need of the children but for the illiterate adults as well.  The school will be accommodating around 25 students and two teachers from the community.
