The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has formed an indirect partnership with Kotak Mutual Fund to provide students and teachers with financial literacy education. As part of the goal, the two organizations hope to launch an investor education and awareness campaign called 'Seekho Paiso ki Bhasha.'
The goal of the mission is to educate and raise awareness among approximately 75,000 educators, the majority of whom are women. The project aims to help the country on its way to a more prosperous future by educating and empowering teachers. The concept would be operational once a comprehensive financial understanding educational and awareness workshops were held in India's most remote districts.

“Through Seekho Paiso Ki Bhasha, we are committed to promoting financial empowerment; we recognize that teachers stand as the architect of our nation’s future, shaping the future generations,” Nilesh Shah, Managing Director (MD), Kotak Mutual Fund said, as per the press release. The initiative will contribute to a future in which teachers not only guide students but also serve as the economic backbone of our country, Shah asserted.
The initiative plans to hold approximately 1,000 financial literacy workshops between September and October of this year. These sessions will be held in over 100 locations, allowing teachers from all over the country to attend. When the scheme is completed, Kotak Mutual Fund will have trained approximately 75,000 CBSE teachers, with half of them being female educators.
