In our
short span of existence, we took up survey activities on different aspect
of the community of which the major ones are :
-
Pilot
Survey at Sagar Block of District South 24 Parganas of West Bengal
with the people who have lost their foothold due to continuous erosion
of tidal wave of sea and awaiting rehabilitation. Having been bestowed
the confidence of Jadvapur University, Kolkata Department of Oceanography,
we carried on survey on 300 such families and assisted the government
authorities in their rehabilitation and made specific survey on their
health, finance, natural fuel used by them other than felling trees
and livelihood.
-
Netaji
Institute of Asean Studies Kolkata gave a project for survey on the
socio economic condition and the relative change in the life style
in a span of 25 years on the female slum dwellers in the age group
35 - 60 years. In a record period of time we had made extensive survey
on 900 such female slum dwellers with invaluable information that
helped them to arrive a conclusion for a larger social project. Thanks
to them for choosing us as the right association to carry on the assignment
by our team members themselves unlike some of the organization who
carry on the survey with the help of professional surveyors.
-
Vidya
Sagar University of Midnapore in West Bengal wanted to make a survey
on the life style of the maid servants and their well and woe. After
having a rigorous screening, we were selected to take up the assignment.
We have made comprehensive survey on 350 maid servants in Kolkata
metropolis and Kharagpur town in two months time and submitted our
real life report that is still remembered by the University.

Tribal Development : A part of the land we have acquired
in Phool Malancha of South 24 Parganas district has been earmarked
for retaining the cultural heritage of the tribes and also educating
them to become literate and self sufficient. A village named Panikhali
in Phool Malancha has been earmarked where few hundreds tribes have
their dwelling place. This village will be the pilot project for
retaining the age old cultural heritage of the tribes those who
form the root of our country. A comprehensive project has been sent
to Government of India and Government of West Bengal. While the
state government project
shall cater to the cultural aspect |
of the tribes, the Government
