Laman Tanda is a community of Lamani people. Traditionally nomadic, they have settled in this slum for many years. The drop-out rate of children in this area is very high, especially for adolescent girls. The area is not conducive to learning, petty crime and delinquency is high. Door Step School has been running classes in a local school building (the school is not operational) for 2 years. In spite of many difficulties results have been encouraging. Currently Door Step School runs both NFE and Study Classes in the morning as well as in the afternoon.
