Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh has been working for the upliftment of the Society with various activities and one such project is Gram Vikas.
We wish each Gram (Village) should be free from alcohoic or drug addictions, crimes (if at all, it should be settled at village level), untouchability, lack of primary education, unemployment, dependency, unhygienic condition etc. Here, the Vikas is not the term given for the development, as generally used for the facility or infrastructure available. Vikas means people participation in the all-round development, such as social harmony, self sufficient in all aspects – ie basic education, health facility, employment, panchayats etc.
Few villages had taken up as pilot projects few years ago and are now showing the result. To name a few in Karnataka –
1. Idkidu, near Mangalore
2. Narsipura –
3. Kalladka
4. Konaje
5. Paltadi ….. etc.
Now, we wish to expand this activity to many more villages and following centres have been identified for Gram Vikas in the surrounding villages.
