Another eventful year 2019-20 has passed. This is an opportunity for me to extend a warm welcome to you all. This is also an occasion us to share our experiences and feelings with you, after the passing away of the great soul. From the core of my heart, I express my gratitude to all the benevolent partners of this pilgrimage on the path of our Guru Santh Harihar Ram ji.

        On behalf of the organization I express my gratitude to our beloved President Mr. P.M. Tripathi who has been associated with us for more than three decades. A man of national stature he has graced the Sangh with his presence from time to time. He has blessed us with his ever dynamic personality at the hour of our dire need. We are obliged to the Vice-President Prof. Rankanath Hota, Existing Members and outgoing members of the Executive Committee, Members of the General Body for their inspiration and encouragement. They stand by us like a pillar of strength. Our members and staff have undergone the strain & stress of their job with true spirit of social workers. No word of praise would be adequate to appreciate their selfless attitude.
