Father of Nationalism

Mr V. V Giri, the Former President of India and Bhatratna called Surendranath Banerjea , the Founder of the Indian Association,as ‘the father of Nationalism .’ Thus the Indian Association had a remarkable role to fight against the anti — people activities of the British Government and for the freedom movement of India at the initial stage on the basis of which we got freedom.

Environment

Many times nature shows its resentment when we face floods, earthquakes, storms. And we suffer financially and personally. Whenever it happens we try to stand by those people who suffer in that rage. By doing this relief camp we serve them, although not completely, we help them to put a smile on their face. Also at this devastating stage of Covid-19, we have served more of the helpless by our relief camp even in this situation.

FreeTraining

Events motivate and create a sense of participation in the program. People become action-conscious and try to stay as active as possible. These specific work programs are usually organized by federations, state governments, NGOs, etc. to create work awareness among people and to participate in work-related programs.
