Rajiv Gandhi Foundation Annual Report 2018 – 2019 Rajiv Gandhi Foundation The Rajiv Gandhi Foundation (RGF) was established in 1991, to realize the vision of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. He dreamt of a modern India, secular, independent and progressive; a country that enshrines the constitutional values of justice, liberty, equality and fraternity, and blends progress with rich cultural traditions. He imagined a country with an educated people free of prejudice; where women participate as equals; a nation with the space and will to empower all citizens, and especially the underprivileged. This vision is the Foundation’s mandate: to help create a peaceful modern nation with a just society, in which every Indian has the opportunity to fulfil his or her potential. Since its inception, the RGF has worked on many wide-ranging issues, from literacy, health, disability, and empowerment of the underprivileged, to creating livelihoods, to natural resource management.
