Why can counselling be useful for girls in KGBV?

Correct answer: For emotional support and correct guidance

Counselling can be valuable in KGBV because girls may face academic pressure, family difficulties, social restrictions, fear, low confidence, or uncertainty about their future. A counsellor can provide a safe and respectful space where a girl can express concerns, understand choices, seek help, and plan suitable steps. Counselling does not replace teaching; it supports emotional well-being, decision-making, confidence, and continued participation in education.

Option A is correct because emotional support and appropriate guidance are genuine purposes of counselling. Stopping study, increasing holidays, or reducing food are not counselling objectives and do not address the needs of students. The word “useful” does not mean that counselling solves every problem instantly. Rather, regular and sensitive guidance can help girls handle difficulties, communicate with trusted adults, and make informed decisions about education and life. This is why counselling is an important support service in KGBV.
