The education, health & pecuniary conditions of the inhabitants of the village in, and around, my birth place are bad, if not primitive.
For the local inhabitants to have a better life and to raise their living standards, I felt strongly to help these villagers in establishing the following facilities:
- Primary Health Care Centre
- Computer Training Centre
- Pre-Primary Children Learning and Play Centre
- Adult Learning Centre : Women
- Adult Learning Centre : Men
- Multi-Purpose High School and College

High School, Technical High School and Vocational School:
A two story building with floor area of approximately 15,000- square feet had been constructed and completed in December 2021.

Donation to very Poor Villagers
I have donated lamb and goat to a few villagers so that they could raise them and their offspring, and improve their pecuniary condition.
This project is known as Goat and Lamb Project.
This project will be expanded in 2023.
