  21. GRAMA SEVA AT PRESENT

  22. Grama Seva at Present A Village is selected for rendering Seva after conducting a survey and interacting with the Panchayat President and other elders. The activities consist of Medical Camps, Veterinary Camps, Temple cleaning, Bhajan Centres, Balvikas etc. We also provide some village specific utility services like Bore Well, Overhead Tank, Roads, Sanitation etc.

  23. Points of Emphasis in Grama Sevaat Present Focus is on the total Village - Medical Camps, Veterinary Camps, Bhajan Mandali, Balvikas etc. are done on this basis. Focus is not on the Family, its problems, needs (material and psychological) etc. No records of the family members are kept on a continuous basis. In many cases the activity is a one-shot affair and not on a sustained basis.

  24. Grama Seva under SSS VIP

  25. Grama Seva under SSS VIP Bhagavan wants us to start from the Individual Family, each of its members and from there spread to the Village. Bhagavan wants us to carefully think how we can serve every Family in a Holistic manner. Our Seva should be primarily based on selfless Love and Shramadan to give them self-confidence and hope. Our main focus is not on material support involving financial outlays.

  26. Core issues to be tackled by SSS VIP Re-Structuring our Grama Seva Model. Shift of Focus to Family. Comprehensive Orientation on Village. Need Identification and Prioritisation.
