Our Philosophy

RURAL areas in any country play a vital role in the development of the country. India stands no different as the second
most populous country in the world with 15-16% of the total World’s population and with its 74.7% of population living in
Rural Areas, 24.3% in Urban Areas. Rural Areas are abundant with natural resources when compared to Urban Areas.

Never in the History of the Human Race has been MAN under such stage of siege as today, an ever depleting natural resources
and ever growing levels of material production. More than 60 yrs have passed by with more than half of the country’s
population being caught in the web of illiteracy, poverty and unemployment. A sense of mild fear exists in every conscious
human being, raising many questions about what should be our next step to tackle the Natural Resource Depletion, Poverty,
Illiteracy and many other Crisis.

Problems faced:

RURAL AREAS	URBAN AREAS
Lack of Primary Health Care mainly for Elderly, young Women and Children	Heavy Concentration of Telephones, Televisions & Doctors.
Lack of Primary Education to more than 70% of the population.	Water Pollution from Sewage & Air pollution from Industrial Effluents and Vehicle Emissions.
Environmental problems like Deforestration, Soil Erosion, Overgrazing, Desertification, Water Pollution (runoff of agri pesticides).	Good part of Slums with heavy concentration of population resulting in diseases like Diarrhea, Malaria, Typhoid etc.,
Depletion in quality Agriculture Products.	Impact of more stress related to diseases and problems in Urban Areas.

Our Solution for Rural Concerns:

A solution for the Rural Concerns cannot be a single idea or statement but can be achieved if we implement the idea of
GRAM SWARAJ – Villages to be autonomous, Self-reliant and Self managing republics.

Strengthen the village Administration through Capacity Building, Formation of Cooperatives and Effective line departments.
Implement technological solutions in the Village for Agricultural and Allied Activities Development, Renewable Energy
Sources and Effective Education.
Induce Ecological Concerns into every Developmental Activity in order to preserve and protect the natural environment.
Developing an Integrated and participatory approach at the local level that can create a new relationship between Man,
Nature and Growth resulting in a sustainable growth.
Creation of model villages in every mandal, every district and every state in the country, for quick reproduction of
model villages.

Model Of Working:

We believe in the model of Gram Swaraj and are focused to create an ideal village and replicate the same model of working
in other areas of Andhra Pradesh State. In our view the following can be the characteristics of an IDEAL VILLAGE.
