"Not preaching, but let's find ways to help make this a reality in whatever way we can. I'm reaching out to the NGO's I support to see how I can contribute," added the 27-year-old.
The Right to Education Act promises 10 broad objectives including free and compulsory education to all children in the 6-14 age group.
