3. We are a group of people who believe that true development is the direct result
of ordinary citizens joining together and working towards a common objective.
We are advocates for a culturally richer and enabling India . Our mission is to
look for practical and simple alternatives , and build a positive poly-cultural
nation with inspiration from Gandhi , Martin Luther King and Aurobindo and
Social practitioners like Amartya Sen.
We believe that Information and Communication are the most powerful tools of
development. We are committed to make these available to as many as
possible. Our strength is drawn from the support of ordinary people. Ordinary
people, when united , can do extra – ordinary things.
We advocate Millennium Development Goal , Universal Human Rights and
Children’s Right, and focus on about issues around equality, fraternity and
tolerance. We combat sectarianism and discrimination against people because
of caste , colour , health status or sexuality.
