Community Library
The Bansa Community Library believes all people should have access to books. We are a low-cost, people’s initiative. The Library was started with two objectives – to create and sustain a reading culture in Bansa and nearby villages and second to provide quality assistance to competitive examination aspirants in the village who otherwise have to migrate to nearby cities for preparing for various government and private examinations.
