Knowing and experiencing things at grassroots level genuinely bring one close to reality of one's situation. Dr R N Mehta captures the essence of such an experience of eleven days visit to north-east region, with all important members of Arogya team, together with Dr Rakes Gupta, President, Arogya, USA.

The second wave of Covid pandemic proved deadly beyond imagination across the nation, and voluntary sector played a key role in helping the affected fellow countrymen. Ekal's massive reach out through Arogya Foundation has been highlighted by Dr Mukul Bhatia's article.

Opinion

Walking Down the Right Path

“If you're walking down the right path and willing to keep walking, eventually you'll reach the destination.” This is an old saying, and very befitting on this very juncture completion of 25 years of Shree Hari Satsang Samiti, w h e n y e a r l o n g s i l v e r j u b i l e e celebrations are being organized across India. The treading of such a long period has reached the first destination, where you are recognizing the feats achieved, the reputation earned, and looking back at the progress Shree Hari has made. Silver Jubilee function held in Delhi to felicitate, to rejoice and to celebrate the efforts done in accordance with the vision of the SHSS was memorable. The walk seems to be satisfying and in right direction. It's really heartening to share my feelings and best wishes at this momentous occasion of Silver Jubilee celebrations.

The eventful journey which started in the year 1984 with a purpose and a vision has been going smoothly accomplishing the set objectives. E x t e n d i n g w a r m w i s h e s a n d congratulating everyone connected with SHSS, and applauding the endeavours of the team for contributing in lifting its mission with consistency is thus carving a niche to its glory. Deeply appreciating towering efforts of the team SHSS who made this dream happening. I extend my best wishes and compliments.

Many More Milestones

It fills my heart with immense joy and p r ide to congra tu la te the organization, the volunteers, the d o n o r s , s t a k e h o l d e r s a n d

administration on the occasion of Silver Jubilee of Shree Hari. In my perspective, the objective of such an organization is to ignite a never ending thirst for social, religious, and spiritual knowledge to enable people to live a harmonious and peaceful life with devotion towards all. In addition, I feel one of the greatest objectives of such religious awakening movement lies in building national character by virtue of developing a very strong sense of commitment to the society and to the Nat ion. Look back through the corridors of time to know how this mission has metamorphosed into an edifice of social-harmony. Be it the case of identifying people of tribal communities for training, imparting scriptural and devotional songs training, and other activities involving social and moral orientation. It is commendable that the SHSS is indulging in all and with equal fervour. It is also great to see that the SHSS is using special ly designed Raths leveraging technology to bridge geographic boundaries and thereby prov id ing v i l lagers the k ind of exposure that is otherwise believed to be exclusively at the disposal of people living in the metro cities. Upon interaction with several kathakars of SHSS and one always finds them to possess a disposition very conducive to learn ing and growth, and a consciousness that upholds high moral standards. This in itself is a great feat for the SHSS.

Wish you achieving many more milestones in reaching out to the people who matters with the vision and mission of the SHSS by each passing year. God bless you all!

where consumers are increasingly

demanding organic products.

B. Advanced

Skill Development

Revolutionizing skill development

p r o g r a m m e s a n d w o m e n

empowerment initiatives like tailoring,

beauty etc by providing more market

re levant sk i l ls , par tner ing wi th

professionals and industry experts to

impart advanced trainings, and

generating opportunities for gainful

livelihood or self-employment post

trainings.

C. Go Digital

Standardize and scale data

col lect ion system to make the

rural supply chain efficient and

modern.

B e f o r e t h e t e a m g o t i n t o

imp lementa t ion mode, GRANE

members looked in the existing

ecosystem to identify opportunity areas

and whitespaces. They learnt that with

help of donors, Ekal established a

village development resource center

called Gramothan Resource Center

(GRC) to provide very successful

training programs. Over 3 years, they

t ra ined over 25,000 farmers in

improved agriculture and over 6,000

women in tailoring. The farmers

expanded their crops and the women

started earning income by running

small tailoring shops. Both these

initiatives are having a significant

impact on the lives of the villagers. They

identified areas where they could

innovate:

1. Enabling a Social Enterprise

Model

Ekal training programmes and

the GRC were heavily reliant by

donations to operate. Finding a

way to generate an income

source by maximizing the value of

skillsets the GRC provided, would

enable donations as capital

investment to create more GRCs

and scale.

2. Providing Premium Market

Linkages

With GRCs providing training

organic farming techniques,

May-June, 2021

robust supply chain mechanism and

premium branding of the product, it

can increase farmer revenue by 20%.

In year one itself, they have procured

45 tons of raw turmeric from 150

farmers, equivalent to 30 thousand

250g packets, enough to generate

margins that could cover the entire

center operating expenses and any

surplus to circle back to source i.e.

farmers.

With supply chain planning going

on, GRANE also took a leap to

procure 1.5 tons of chilis from another

nearby GRC (GRC Jarangloi in

Orissa) and expanded our process to

unlock the potential to create 5

thousand 250g packers of chi l i

powder.

farmers could grow premium

qual i ty turmeric, above and

beyond that of the mass market. If

they could expand market beyond

to local GRC area and provide

market linkages to high-value

urban markets with demand for

farmer friendly organically grown

produce, they could net a much

higher margin back to the GRC.

3. Modernizing our Data Systems

E k a l h a s a l r e a d y m a d e a

phenomenal impact in the GRC in

a mostly paper based system, or a

google form compiled in a central

location once a month. Creating

real-time tracking and traceability,

and enabling field coordinators

with low cost smartphones to input

information can enable faster

knowledge transfer and high

impact decision making.

GRANE took these challenges

and started working towards turning

these into opportunities. They wanted

to transition the skill training and farmer

support programmes from a donor

supported model to a revenue based

model , whi le a lso s ign i f icant ly

e n h a n c i n g t h e i n c o m e s o f

beneficiaries. The team focused on

leveraging expertise in 5 main areas:

• Working with farmers

• Food processing

• Creating supply chains

• Branding and data analytics

• Advanced skill development

The Growth over the last several

months can be attributed to focus on

developing trust and partnerships,

creating strong ties with the local

leadership and adapting and innovating

constantly to ensure that initiatives are

serving the needs of communities. For

them, it is not just the sheer number of

people they support, instead they want

to implement scalable programmes that

are effective and impact driven. They

started with Karanjo, Jharkhand GRC

and today, 10 months later, They have

active dialogues or programmes in

almost 5 GRCs. Although they still have

bounds to go, in short journey so far of

making centers mini social enterprises,

we have already some accomplish-

ments that they are proud of:

01. Organic Turmeric

Production in Karanjo, Jharkhand

and Chili in Jarangaloi, Orissa

GRANE identified an untapped

market opportunity in Karanjo GRC.

Local team’s organic farming skilling

efforts had resulted in high quality

turmeric being grown around the

GRCs by hundreds of farmers. To

surprise, the turmeric’s curcumin

content was over 6.39%, well above

the 2-3% in regular turmeric brands

from grocery stores. To hedge farmers

risk, It had procured 8 tons of raw

Haldi in last few years and processed

it in small scale processing facility, all

sold within Ekals network and local

markets, receiving great reviews. The

analysis showed that if GRC invests in

an integrated state of the art spice

processing facility, and equip it with

the latest machinery, it can scale

production by 10X. Also, by creating

C. Go Digital

Standardize and scale data

rural supply chain efficient and

modern.

B e f o r e t h e t e a m g o t i n t o

imp lementa t ion mode, GRANE

members looked in the existing

ecosystem to identify opportunity areas

and whitespaces. They learnt that with

help of donors, Ekal established a

village development resource center

called Gramothan Resource Center

(GRC) to provide very successful

training programs. Over 3 years, they

t ra ined over 25,000 farmers in

improved agriculture and over 6,000

women in tailoring. The farmers

expanded their crops and the women

started earning income by running

small tailoring shops. Both these

initiatives are having a significant

impact on the lives of the villagers. They

identified areas where they could

innovate:

1. Enabling a Social Enterprise

Model

Ekal training programmes and

the GRC were heavily reliant by

donations to operate. Finding a

way to generate an income

source by maximizing the value of

skillsets the GRC provided, would

enable donations as capital

investment to create more GRCs

and scale.

2. Providing Premium Market

Linkages

With GRCs providing training

organic farming techniques,

May-June, 2021

robust supply chain mechanism and

premium branding of the product, it

can increase farmer revenue by 20%.

In year one itself, they have procured

45 tons of raw turmeric from 150

farmers, equivalent to 30 thousand

250g packets, enough to generate

margins that could cover the entire

center operating expenses and any

surplus to circle back to source i.e.

farmers.

With supply chain planning going

on, GRANE also took a leap to

procure 1.5 tons of chilis from another

nearby GRC (GRC Jarangloi in

Orissa) and expanded our process to

unlock the potential to create 5

thousand 250g packers of chi l i

powder.

farmers could grow premium

qual i ty turmeric, above and

beyond that of the mass market. If

they could expand market beyond

to local GRC area and provide

market linkages to high-value

urban markets with demand for

farmer friendly organically grown

produce, they could net a much

higher margin back to the GRC.

3. Modernizing our Data Systems

E k a l h a s a l r e a d y m a d e a

phenomenal impact in the GRC in

a mostly paper based system, or a

google form compiled in a central

location once a month. Creating

real-time tracking and traceability,

and enabling field coordinators

with low cost smartphones to input

information can enable faster

knowledge transfer and high

impact decision making.

GRANE took these challenges

and started working towards turning

these into opportunities. They wanted

to transition the skill training and farmer

support programmes from a donor

supported model to a revenue based

model , whi le a lso s ign i f icant ly

e n h a n c i n g t h e i n c o m e s o f

beneficiaries. The team focused on

leveraging expertise in 5 main areas:

• Working with farmers

• Food processing

• Creating supply chains

• Branding and data analytics

• Advanced skill development

The Growth over the last several

months can be attributed to focus on

developing trust and partnerships,

creating strong ties with the local

leadership and adapting and innovating

constantly to ensure that initiatives are

serving the needs of communities. For

them, it is not just the sheer number of

people they support, instead they want

to implement scalable programmes that

are effective and impact driven. They

started with Karanjo, Jharkhand GRC

and today, 10 months later, They have

active dialogues or programmes in

almost 5 GRCs. Although they still have

bounds to go, in short journey so far of

making centers mini social enterprises,

we have already some accomplish-

ments that they are proud of:

01. Organic Turmeric

Production in Karanjo, Jharkhand

and Chili in Jarangaloi, Orissa

GRANE identified an untapped

market opportunity in Karanjo GRC.

Local team’s organic farming skilling

efforts had resulted in high quality

turmeric being grown around the

GRCs by hundreds of farmers. To

surprise, the turmeric’s curcumin

content was over 6.39%, well above

the 2-3% in regular turmeric brands

from grocery stores. To hedge farmers

risk, It had procured 8 tons of raw

Haldi in last few years and processed

it in small scale processing facility, all

sold within Ekals network and local

markets, receiving great reviews. The

analysis showed that if GRC invests in

an integrated state of the art spice

processing facility, and equip it with

the latest machinery, it can scale

production by 10X. Also, by creating

nuanced and in-demand skills like pattern making, design research, fabric cutting etc., which are traditionally learnt mostly by men. This will empower them to earn a living with dignity, either by helping them find employment or assist them in starting their own business.

What’s next for GRANE?

We might be sitting in the comfort of our homes but our hearts beat for every person in the remote villages of India. GRANE plan to leverage the power of technology to change the way they operate today. It envision Ekal’s organic brands to be produced and sold in every part of the world. We want the clothes designed by women to be marketed on e-commerce platforms and it will not stop working until the dream of making every GRC self-sustainable is achieved.

Arise, Awake, and Stop not ti l l the goal is reached!~Swami Vivekananda

02. GRANE App for Data traceability

The data team, with expertise in sof tware product management, business analytics, and supply chain consu l t ing i s work ing towards modernizing our supply chain from a paper-based system to providing real-time analytics tracking. This will be a c c e s s e d b y u s i n g l o w c o s t smartphones from Karyakartas (field coordinators). They are actively m a p p i n g o u t u s e c a s e s a n d negotiating with multiple ERP vendors to provide this long term support as they expand their operations. This data system will save weeks of time spent in data collection and payments as well as enable faster decision making.

03. Makeup workshop in Tinsukia, Assam

GRANE facil itated a 2-week i n tens i ve makeup and beau ty workshop for 20 girls in Tinsukia GRC, conducted by a celebrity makeup artist Hiyavi Saigal and bridal artist, Ms Ananya Parwani. The workshop kicked off on International Women’s Day and

was organized with an intent to impart advanced makeup skills to young girls. However, in the process trainers also taught the girls valuable lessons around client negotiation, time management, etc. To kickstart these girls journey, They also provided with quality booster kits. The student Monalisha Gogoi says, “I want to be a celebrity artist one day! I walk 4 hours every day to attend this workshop. This workshop has changed my life”. The workshop the girls that their talent is limitless and they can dare to dream big.

04. Partnerships with like-minded organizations

GRANE: believes that the best collaborations create something bigger than the sum of what each person can create on one’s own. It has identified some incredible partners in the journey who share a similar vision and a desire to drive change. While it has the resources and the network, they have the specialized tools and skills. One such partnership is with an all women des ign and sk i l l deve lopmen t organization called MasterG, for Khargone Centre in MP. MasterG’s unique training modules impart highly

When we started this programme, we knew we were taking a big risk in undertaking such a transformative programme in the tribal India. However, we have seen great results in a very short time. We have found that a similar programme by a local organization had achieved poor results. The major difference is our IVD programme with a committed project leader. It has support of large number of dedicated Ekal volunteers and workers.

We believe this holistic development would make the villagers self-reliant and proud of their heritage. It will give them opportunity to stay in their villages as against migrating to the cities to support their families. However, it is a slow process and would take about 5 years before we see a major difference in the lives of the villagers.

We visited Ekal villages in Jharkhand in February 2020. We were very impressed with the progress we saw. Majority of the villagers had their own Poshan Vatikas, where they were growing enough fruits and vegetables for their families, most women had learnt tailoring, and many young people had learnt computer skills besides children getting good education in Ekal Vidyalayas.

We are impressed how these villagers have adopted the new norm. They are not only keeping themselves safe and providing food for their families from Poshan Vatika, but also using their tailoring skills to make masks for Ekal frontline workers, police and health professionals.

We are very impressed with the outstanding achievements in our IVDs and have identified what we consider as exemplary achievements in just over 2 years.

Ekal will soon reach out to us in how to support Ekal mission in these difficult times. Let us take a lead in helping them.

“YouhaveallowedmetotouchtheFuture”HowEkalonWheelsisbridging

thedigitaldividein100,000ofIndia'sruralvillages

According to a 2018 report from the Digital Empowerment Foundation, 90% of India’s population is digitally illiterate. The problem intensifies in rural villages, where lack of roads and electricity makes development efforts extremely difficult. Ekal on Wheels (EoWs) is changing that. EoWs trailblazing, solar-powered mobile computer labs are designed to meet the needs of rural communities. Since its launch in 2015, Ekal on Wheels have brought digital literacy to 14,770 rural girls and boys

across 706 villages. And it has only just begun.

Developed in partnership with IIT Bombay’s Spoken Tutorial Project, EoWs’ curriculum builds technology s k i l l s , f i n a n c i a l l i t e r a c y, a n d entrepreneurship capabilities over the course of three-month training. Graduates earn a certificate from IIT Bombay. Each bus seats 18 students, has nine computers, and reaches 36 villages annually. Ekal currently has 26 buses operating around India and another 10 will be ready for action within the next one to three months. For its innovation, the project won HP and India Today’s Digital Trailblazers Award in 2016.

Ekal believes strongly that rural vil lages are the future of India. Equipped with the skills to thrive in a digital world, and with the incoming arrival of 5G, rural India is poised to

EkalonWheelsbecome more connected than ever before. “Villages we call ‘remote’ because they are nearly inaccessible by roads will no longer be remote because they will be connected digitally,” says Executive Director Ms Ranjani Saigal.

Indeed, technology is transforming how we think about access. Doors are opening for underserved youth who, without Ekal, would never have had access to computers or digital training. Many EoWs graduates go on to succeed in a variety of computer-related fields, from data entry to running their own businesses. Rural villages are rapidly becoming crucial players on the

international stage. With the ground-breaking help of EoWs, rural India has never been more prepared to meet the challenges of the future head-on. As one trainee put it, “Ekal on Wheels allowed me to touch the future.”

Ekal’s mission is to empower individuals and families in India and Nepal’s rural villages to achieve their full human potential, and move with urban population.

According to a 2018 report from the Digital Empowerment Foundation, 90% of India’s population is digitally illiterate. The problem intensifies in rural villages, where lack of roads and electricity makes development efforts extremely difficult. Ekal on Wheels (EoWs) is changing that. EoWs trailblazing, solar-powered mobile computer labs are designed to meet the needs of rural communities. Since its launch in 2015, Ekal on Wheels have brought digital literacy to 14,770 rural girls and boys

across 706 villages. And it has only just begun.

Developed in partnership with IIT Bombay’s Spoken Tutorial Project, EoWs’ curriculum builds technology s k i l l s , f i n a n c i a l l i t e r a c y, a n d entrepreneurship capabilities over the course of three-month training. Graduates earn a certificate from IIT Bombay. Each bus seats 18 students, has nine computers, and reaches 36 villages annually. Ekal currently has 26 buses operating around India and another 10 will be ready for action within the next one to three months. For its innovation, the project won HP and India Today’s Digital Trailblazers Award in 2016.

Ekal believes strongly that rural vil lages are the future of India. Equipped with the skills to thrive in a digital world, and with the incoming arrival of 5G, rural India is poised to

The third camp was arranged at Migrant Camp Nagrota TRT, Jammu. In this camp 153 patients were examined. There were 57 males and 96 females.

Mahabharat television serial, adopted two Ekal Vidyalayas in Narayangaon Anchal, in the state of Maharashtra, and recently visited both of them. He thanked Ekal Parivar for giving him the opportunity to do some good Karma of giving back to the society. He said, “It is my duty to return same to the society which made me what I am today, and continue to get love, attention and respect of the people. I am humbled by Ekal accepting me in its Parivaar.”

App by Ekal YuvaEkal Yuva launched

an App ca l led Eka l Culture Connect App that includes shlokas, s t o r i e s , h a n u m a n chalisa, interesting facts about our culture and fun quizzes. It is currently available on android and soon coming on Apple too. The objective of the App is to connect the new generation with Indian scriptures and culture.

flung areas, Arogya Foundation has also converted two vans into Mobile Eye Clinic. Both the vans were initially taken to two villages of Rajasthan - Dumma in Deoghar and Virat Nagar.

The vans are fully equipped to take care of primary eye care like cataract, refractive errors, diabetic retinopathy and corneal blindness. At

both the villages screening was carried out over 4174 people in Dumma, and 4409 in Virat Nagar.

Ekal Arogya on Wheels

Inspired by the success of Computer on Wheels (EoWs), and Shri Hari Satsang Samiti Rath in far-

A Hindu Puranik Kathas contest was organised by the Ekal Yuva (EY) to b e c o m e p a r t o f t h e y e a r l o n g celebrations of Shri Hari Satsang Samiti Rajat Jayanti. EY had received 100 registered children from across the country. The little children of different age groups recited stories of Ram, Krishna, Hanuman and so on during the event. The theatre faculty from Helen O Grady School of Drama judged all the story telling videos, and the prizes were given on a virtual ceremony.

Story telling contest by Ekal Yuva

Ms Nayantara Jain was the chief guest, and the winners were given certificates and story books as prizes. This was a small effort by Ekal Yuva to create interest about our scriptures among children.

Born in 1957 in a modest family from Solapur and an Electronic Engineer by education, Sri Uday Khardekar has been the axis of all Ekal operations in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states for 16 years. Sri Khardekar comes from a family committed to Sangh ideology, and most family members have been active in various Sangh activities, testimony to a heritage of community service he (Sri Uday) is successor to.

The family came to Hyderabad in 1964 when his father, working for Indian Railways, was transferred to the city. After graduation, he joined Defence Electronics Research Laboratory in 1981 where apart from picking up nuances of electronics, an emerging business, he setup and led staff union. He ventured into his own business of Electronics in 1997, and joined Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP). Sri Khardekar

has been active in VHP since then. He joined Ekal in 2004 and assumed responsibility of Secretary, Janhita, an organisation setup with blessings of Late Sri Ashok Singhal. Janhita became at forefront of endeavours of local ownership of Ekal Vidyalayas, c a l l e d S V O ( S t a t e Vo l u n t a r y Organisation) in those days. Sri Uday K h a r d e k a r d i s c h a r g e d t h i s responsibility till the day Janhita was with Ekal, and then was handed over back to VHP in March, 2020, and all SVOs were subsumed into Ekal Gram Sangathan.

During the long period of 16 years, Sri Khardekar inspired all operations of Ekal in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, covering Samiti functions and Hyderabad chapter, both. In various capacit ies l ike Sambhag Pres iden t , Kendr i ya Pratinidhi and Vice-President of

Central Executive Committee, he has contributed to growth of Ekal and its field services in these two states. Sri Khardekar has developed not only wide acquaintance of Seva Vrati Karyakartas and Bhag and Anchal Samities, but has also been able to maintain close personal relationship with most of them. A regular traveller to field level, Sri Khardekar is one of the few Gram Sangthan volunteers who have earned deep respect from Sevavrati volunteers by mentoring and support ing them. Sri Uday Khardekar has been at the roots of spreading all activities from Ekal Vidyalaya to Sanskar Shiksha, Rath, Skill Centres etc in the region, and now a GRC is in offing.

Axis of Ekal operations in Andhra and TelanganaSri Uday Khardekar has closed his

business operations lately so that he is able to devote full-time to the activities of Ekal. Presently, he is General S e c r e t a r y o f E k a l G r a m o t h a n Foundation, and Vice President of Central Executive Committee. For the last couple of years, Sri Khardekar has been looking after all Gramothan projects in all 5 states of the southern India.

Sri Uday Khardekar is blessed with two daughters, elder an Architect, and younger a Surgeon, and both are well-settled. Like most volunteers engaged in community service, Sri Khardekar is also associated with some more institutions like Shivaji Sfoorti Kendra, VHP and Marathi Sahitya Parishad. But his passion, focus and key objective of life remains serving Bharat Mata through Ekal.
