The New India Trust endeavours to motivate people by increasing awareness and acting as a catalyst for desired social reforms. However these program are - of the local people, for the local people and by the people of local community.
Areas of work:
(A) Individual betterment:
For the self empowerment at larger scale, the initiatives should be taken for wide adoption of PERSONAL LIFE MANAGEMENT PRINCIPALS (PLMP) at your locality. The important values of mutual respect, support & cooperation are also expected from members of local population.
We believe that irrespective of his social status, position, section or religion each & every citizen across the country has an obligation to develop himself in a way useful to himself and the nation.
(B) Physical environment:
We as proud people & citizens- need to urgently realize that sadly still, most of the residential areas/colonies/localities (not only rural but even urban) in our nation, reflect very common scenes of untidiness and poor upkeep- reflecting a general attitude of ignorance, negligence & irresponsibility. It is crucial for us to understand that not only any government, but also we as individuals are equally responsible for good ambience & physical environment of our neighbourhood.
Therefore for betterment in our surroundings let’s all determine to take the initiatives ourselves. We must plan & act for our own “CLEAN & GREEN” locality. We should believe that with combined action, it’s not a difficult aim at all.
