Here we talk about the era when the concept of e- reading materials was not evolved and children were fond of reading: Chanda Mama, Chacha Choudhary. Parag kind of Magazines. Ladies and Girls were keen about Sarita , Gruhshobha , Meri Saheli, Women’s Era type periodicals and were eager to have the Latest Addition read by them. Boys and Men were also interested to have: Manohar Kahaniya, Dharmug, Navnit, Readers Digest etc magazines for reading. Large number of persons were interested in reading Hindi & English novels in their leisure time. Everyone of them were not capable of purchasing magazines and books of their choice at their own sources.
To cater to their reading requirement Shri R.G.Bajpai started a Library in year 1971 in the name of “APNA PUSTKALAYA”at Sector 6 Bhilai and thereafter its Branches at Sector -10 in the Year 1973 & Risali Sector in 1986. This was the first step of Radhe Govind Bajpai in social cum business world of Bhilai. All kind of News Papers , periodical, Magazines, and Short Story Books of renowned writers in Hindi & English were made available in the Library for the Book lovers of Bhilai & Durg at a very low cost at the Library. “APNA PUSTKALAYA” is still continuing to be Brand Name of Radhe Govind Bajpai.
“Laxmi Group“ understands the need of education in Society, specially for the Girl Child & low income group of the Society .Hence family members formed a society “New Modern Shikshan Samiti” in the Year 2004.
