Cities with large migrant population can take a leaf out of the Surat model, where the municipal corporation has been running over 120 special schools to cater to the needs of the city’s workforce.

Officials said running these schools in languages other than the native Gujarati has encouraged the migrant workers to bring their families to settle in the city.

Over 66,000 students have been enrolled in these non-Gujarati medium schools and their numbers have been increasing in this city, which is known as a hub for textiles and diamonds. Large number of people have been migrating to the city from Hindi-speaking states, Odisha and Andhra Pradesh.Click Here: Putters
