  • 'Samaj Shilpi Dampati'(SSD), a newly wed graduate couple that have the enseof commitment towards service, who lived and worked in the village for a period of five years.
  • The SSD would work in a cluster of five villages.
  • After an orientation and training camp,the SSD are taken to the village where they can live either in the primary school or with a family. This is sympathetic to the cause of social development.
  • Started with the children, with their open commitment for the development of all the villagers they got the trust of the villagers.
