Rights and entitlements secured

What the law already owed them.

A large part of our work is simply making sure people receive what the law already entitles them to.

  • 75 self help groups of persons with disabilities formed
  • 175 pensions secured
  • 45 house sites obtained
  • 325 bus and rail passes arranged
  • 42 rural women's groups formed, meeting twice a month
Community and infrastructure

Beyond the campus gate.

  • Roads laid in 8 villages
  • Drinking water facilities provided, including tubs for animals
  • Drains constructed in colonies and hamlets
  • Check dams built, tanks and ponds desilted
  • Tree plantation and protection programmes run
  • Environmental sensitisation camps conducted for the public

What we have not yet done

We say this plainly because it is where support is most needed. Our library is planned but not built. Separate hostels for boys and girls are planned but not built. Staff accommodation is planned but not built. Speech therapy facilities are not yet properly streamlined. A corpus fund, which would let us stop living month to month, is still being built with the help of well wishers.
