Patel launched the 21st edition of the enrolment drive, 'Shala Praveshotsav', from a government school in Dang district on Wednesday.

During his visit to Chhotaudepur, he welcomed students with gifts including books, stationery, and school bags, and supervised new enrolments in anganwadi centres and various school classes.
