The Government of India has approved a scheme called Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) for setting up upto 1180 residential schools with boarding facilities at elementary level for girls belonging predominantly to the SC, ST, OBC and minorities in difficult areas. The scheme will be coordinated with the existing schemes of Department of Elementary Education & Literacy viz. Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA), National Programme for Education of Girls at Elementary Level (NPEGEL) and Mahila Samakhya (MS). Asha for Education will work with Mahila Samakhya Uttar Pradesh to come up with innovative solutions for execution of this scheme

Mahila Samakhya Uttar Pradesh is a unique initiative. A government programme, it has the passion and commitment of a voluntary agency, energy of a movement and the synergies of asystemic organisation. Its goals are broader and longer term in nature than a ‘scheme’, as it seeks to bring about change in the situation of women, in terms of equality and empowerment. MS works towards enabling women to bring about a change in their own situation, while also helping society become equity-oriented. Thus, MS works on society in general, but also through social and political institutions, government departments and agencies, and through a larger advocacy in society
In UP, the main planks of MS action are:
Rights and governance
Education
Health
Economic empowerment
