Building constructed for Vocational guidance in RD Khanolkar High School,
Math, Vengurla, Sindhudurg
A building was constructed to provide vocational guidance to students in rural areas by Saunvardhan Pratishthan. There is lack of scope for further education after SSC in rural areas due to which students aren’t able to pursue higher education or have to go to cities or bigger towns. But this is not affordable for a lot of students in rural areas. Thus, a vicious cycle of illiteracy and unemployment is created.
The aim of Saunvardhan Pratishthan is to help provide all the necessary educational facilities for the development of student in rural areas. Hence, Saunvardhan Pratishthan made a lot of efforts and constructed a building for vocational guidance, so that the condition of students can improve and by learning vocational skills they can be self-employed. In addition, Saunvardhan Pratishthan also helped in repair of toilets and improving the existing building of RD Khanolkar High school.

Smart city event
‘Smart City – Challenges of Civic amenities, Infrastructure & Social Justice ’was held at Swatantryaveer Savarkar Sabhagruh – Shivaji park, Dadar, on 12rh March, 2016.
To create awareness about ‘all civil amenities & related obstacles’ among young generation specially ‘college students & working class’, we arranged a platform to discuss various aspects of advanced technology, modernity & social justice with well-chosen experts / speakers from different fields like health, education, science, environment etc.
As a citizen of Mumbai, we are observing that the city is in the verse of developing serious problems as infrastructure, environment and basic amenities. While there is national talk about ‘Smart city’ & modern advanced infrastructure, though Mumbai is commercial capital of country, there is urgent need to address this issue. We made a small attempt or an effort to provide a platform to common man to participate & to express his views about implementation of government policies of ‘Smart city’.
