Mr Ravi Posh a seasoned stationary dealer and a tutor of commerce was always at wits end when anxious parents sought randomly his advise more than a decade ago about the careers guidance and choice of schools etc while they came to his Stationery shop located in one of the posh areas of SIRSA the Chowk of A,B & D Block (Durga Mandir Chowk). Initially he used to tell them whatever he thought was proper but was never sure if the advice he is doling out is really best. This made him always ponder that if had access to all the data base of everyone and all institutes imparting education then he could be better equipped for the free advice he is doling out. He discussed the matter with his friends and every one suggested why not he compile and print such a directory. That day onwards he stopped imparting lessons in commerce to College and university students and left his business in the care of his father. Every morning he left to compile data by personally visiting all the schools, colleges, institutes etc. first in the main cities then in towns and later he did not leave the remotest village having even the smallest of the school.

The directory when released was a runaway success. But it did not really serve the purpose to the extent that it was purported to do as it could not be in the hands of all the people when really needed. (Parents and students), due to its limited number of printed copies. The next from the brainchild of Mr. Ravi Posh was to put all such information on the web so that it may become available to one and all and everywhere!
Working on website in small cities like Sirsa is by any terms a herculean task for anyone. But Mr. Ravi Posh was determined to accomplish this and hence this website is here.
The website is constantly improving with data being added in increments. It shall be better to just browse through the simple navigation of the site to know more about it. Click: www.EducationTorch.com
“Students, parents and teachers are welcome to send their responses, drawings and other teaching & creative work for being displayed on the website, though it may take some time to put in this all on the web site.” Ravi informed SirsaNews.com
