6 From the Desk of the President

Dear Well-wishers,

In the development of any nation, no doubt the role of the Government in office is very important. However, there are number of persons in the society, whose selfless contributions create new land marks for the society, even more than the Government. Social reformers are one of them, whose contributions bring happiness in the lives of common man. They don’t expect any praise from the society or the Government. They live and die for the cause.

The year 2016 reminds all of us of the pioneering contribution of two 'Rishis' of this era, namely Padmabhushan Dr. Banoo Coyajee and Padmavibhushan Shri.Nanaji Deshmukh. 2016 is their birth centenary year. I was fortunate to have worked closely with both these incredible icons.

The centenary year is an opportunity to remember and salute the path breaking work done by both of them for the welfare of the society. Dr. Banoo Coyajee through the medical field and Nanaji through his dream project of 'Swawalambi Gram Yojana' brought happiness in the lives of lacs of people of the underprivileged sections of the society. On this solemn occasion, we all bow before them and seek their blessings.

We are presenting the annual work report for year 2016. Wardhinee is also working on the integrated development of underprivileged sections of the society. The readers will get an idea of our humble effort to make a difference. Your response on how we could serve better will be deeply appreciated. Wardhinee will continue to work with a missionary zeal to make that much needed difference to the society.

(Dr. Raghunath Mashelkar) President

Vivek Velankar for his work in promoting awareness in the society at large, about the Right to Information Act. Through number of legal battles, Shri. Velankar has demonstrated how the act is a useful tool to make the Govt. machinery move and to protect the rights of the citizens. The felicitation program was held on 3rd Jan. 2015 at Patrakar Bhawan Sabhagruh on 7th May, 2016 at the hands of the founder of Chanakya Mandal, Shri. Avinash Dharmadhikari. Expressing his thoughts, Shri. Vivek Velankar said that he

13 was accepting the Award on behalf all the volunteers of SAJAG, who have contributed equally in creating awareness in the society. He especially thanked his wife and family members for encouraging him to work for social cause. In his presidential address, Shri. Avinash Dharmadhikari said that leaders like Lokmanya Tilak and Agarkar embraced poverty but did not waver from their mission to awaken the society against the British Rule. We got independence due to their sacrifice. Now, it is our responsibility to protect our freedom and hence the society should keep close and constant watch on the Govt. administration. The Govt. machinery and the administrators are answerable not only to the elected representatives, but also to the whole society. Celebration of 125th Birth Anniversary of Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Dr. Ambedkar was a great patriot, a social thinker, political reformer, economist & a philosophical writer with progressive ideas. He fought for the betterment of the oppressed and depressed classes. Dr. Ambedkar had etched mark of his talent and vision in drafting the Indian Constitution. He was candid about his ideas of nation building & possessed a great foresight. His PhD thesis was inspirational in setting up the Finance Commission of India and his works helped immensely in framing guidelines for the RBI Act 1934. Truly, he was a maker of modern India. On the occasion of his 125th birth anniversary, the trustees of ‘Swa'-Roopwardhinee decided to celebrate his birth anniversary year through various programs and activities. Till now, we have been able to organize more than 40 programs in the form of Abhyaswarg, Samuhik Upasana, Life Story Telling Sessions, Street Plays, Blood Donation Camps, Special Guest Lectures by Dr. Sheshrao More and Shri. Ramesh Pandav etc. Interview with Shri. Mohan Gujarathi Shri. Mohan Gujarathi, the Director of Prabodh Udyog was interviewed on the occasion of inauguration of Prabodh Sabhagruh. He shared his experiences of working with Dr. Appasaheb Pendse, the founder of Jnanaprabodhinee and Shri. Kishabhau Patwardhan, the founder of ‘Swa’- Roopwardhinee. He unfolded the journey of Prabodh Udyog in a very informal dialogue. The interview was quite motivational. The young volunteers were inspired by his following thoughts: Compete with yourself, instead of competing with others You must punish yourself, for your own mistake or if you have failed to do something which you had planned We really learn through experience Do not think only about your own success; think how others too will succeed Your fate will be positive only if your motives is noble De-addiction through self-realization Most of the students of the Trust come from socially or economically weaker sections of the society. In some of these families, the addiction of an earning parent (mostly the fathers) is a serious problem. Whenever volunteers visit such homes and have an opportunity to talk to the parents, they indirectly suggest them to stop their habit of addiction. However, such suggestions do not have much impact. The reason is simple. Unless such person feels it from within, no change can happen. This year, on 23rd Jan., Wardhinee celebrated Sankrant Utsav, its annual function. On this occasion, 600 students and volunteers presented a mega show on the theme of ‘Oneness’ in society. Number

14 of incidents from history and cultural heritage, as well as some experiences from the present were staged effectively. Parents of students and volunteers were also present at this function. After a period of two months of this program, one of the volunteers shared his experience how his father who lost his job due to his alcohol addiction, and disturbed the entire family life, has left his habit. The father realized that his son, who is a volunteer of Wardhinee, was doing a great job. The further also understood that good thinking and habits are imbibed at Wardhinee and his son is a part of that team. With this realisation, he felt that he must get rid of his drinking habit. That moment of his self-realization helped him to come out of his addiction. We are proud that we could become instrumental in bringing happiness back to this family. Workshop organized by 'DE AASARA' (Xo Amgam)Amgam)(Xo There are youths who have a dream to start their own business. The main hurdle in bringing this dream into reality is availability of capital. Many financial institutions have funds, but their complicated procedures are a daunting task for any new-comer. DE AASARA is an NGO in Pune and is run with an objective to helping the youths to bring their business plans into reality. A workshop on “Guidance on Setting up Business” was organized on 17th August at Wardhinee In which 50 youths participated. Shri. Anil Pathak of DE AASARA interacted with the participants. He responded to the questions asked by the audience. During his speech, Shri. Pathak threw light on the following points- • How to raise seed capital and funds required for day to day expenditure? • How to tackle the problem of skilled / unskilled human resources? Lokarpan of book on Bhoodan Chalwal On April 18th 1951, the historic day of the very genesis of the Bhoodan movement, Vinoba entered Nalgonda district, the centre of Communist activity. The organizers had arranged Vinoba’s stay at Pochampalli, a large village with about 700 families, of whom two-thirds were landless. Vinoba went to visit the Harijan (the Untouchables) colony. The Harijans asked for eighty acres of land, forty irrigated, forty unirrigated. For forty families that would be enough! Then Vinoba asked, ”If it is not possible to get land from the government, is there not something the villagers themselves could do?” To everyone’s surprise and delight, Ram Chandra Reddy, the local landlord, got up & said in a rather excited voice, “I will give you 100 acres for these people.” At his evening prayer meeting, Ram Chandra Reddy got up & repeated his promise to offer 100 acres of land to the Harijans. This incident, neither planned nor imagined, was the very genesis of the Bhoodan movement and it made Vinoba think that therein lay the potential of solving the land problem of India. Vinoba led the movement to demand fifty million acres of land for the landless from the whole of India by 1957. Thus a personal initiative took the form of a mass movement. This was indeed a very remarkable achievement for a constructive work movement. The enthusiasm for the movement lasted till 1957 and thereafter it began to wane. Prof. Dr. Ganesh Raut, who is a volunteer of Wardhinee was conferred Ph.D. for his thesis on Bhoodan Chalwal. He has written and published a book based on this subject which was dedicated to people in a program organized at Wardhinee. Shri. Vivek Savant (Director-MKCL), Shri. Prashant Kothadiya- (Social Worker - Azim Premji Foundation) and Shri. Satish Joshi (Social Worker) were present during the program. Samajik Rakshabandhan a) As a part of celebrations of 125th birth anniversary of Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, the festival of Rakhipournima was observed as “Samajik Rakshabandhan”. Volunteers and students of

15 Wardhinee visited 2500 homes to spread the message of equality based society (Samatayukt Samaj). On this occasion, a sticker displaying a quotation from Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar was given to every family. People welcomed this concept of celebrating the festival of Rakshabandhan. b) E Waste collection drive Global warming has acquired alarming proportions. In order to protect the environment, it has now become very important to spread the message of clean environment. Use of Electronic devices has become so common, that people throw huge quantities of faulty devices and gadgets directly into dustbins. It creates a serious pollution problem to the society at large. Social organizations in Pune decided to conduct an E-Waste Collection Drive on the occasion of Rakhipournima to educate the society and motivate them to deposit their E waste at a specific collection point. ‘Swa’-Roopwardhinee participated in this drive. Through door to door campaign we were able to reach and appeal to 1500 families to respond positively. Demonetization & its aftereffects On 26th November, the Constitution Day, a special lecture was organized at Wardhinee. One of the trustees of Arthkranti Pratishthan and noted journalist, Shri. Yamaji Malkar was invited to address the youths on the current issue of demonetization and its aftereffects. On 8th November this year, the Central Government announced that the currency notes of Rs.500/- and Rs.1000/- would not remain a legal tender with immediate effect. Since that moment every Indian is very curious to understand what would happen to the Indian economy as a result of demonetization. Shri. Yamaji Malkar talked to the audience in great details. He strongly supported the decision of demonetization taken by the Central Government. He further explained that this move will have multifarious effects - e.g. the threat of terrorism and black money shall reduce. He said that Arthkranti Pratishthan has constantly been demanding demonetization. He also supported the Govt. efforts for encouraging the e- transactions. At the end of the program, the audience took the following oath- v I shall never hold any specific faction responsible for any national issue v I shall never disgrace my nation v I shall do everything to set right the faulty system and shall start asking questions to the system, as a step in this direction v I shall always insist for transaction in white money. Vibrations in the blooming minds ‘ Swa’-Roopwardhinee and Tata Motor’s Center for Youth Development & Activities jointly organized a workshop for adolescent students of Wardhinee. The main object was to make them properly understand how to handle the physical and emotional changes that they face during adolescence. The following subjects were addressed in this workshop Communication skill, Know yourself, The Gender concept in present context, know your body and changes in it, What is love & attraction. Response from the students was positive. They shared their experiences freely and asked some questions to clear their doubts.

Shakha for Trainers Training At ‘Swa’-Roopwardhinee, these days, most of the Shakhas (centres) are led by the students of Junior College level (11th & 12th Std). They have tremendous energy and they take keen interest in planning, executing programs including the daily schedule. However, it is observed that they need some training for their academic excellence as well as

16 motivational training to enable them to understand the vision and mission of the trust. At two locations, training shakha is conducted twice a week. Motivational sessions are organised once a week. Following are some of the topics covered during motivational sessions. Some of these sessions were practical sessions.
