Introduction
Ramco Institute of Technology (AISHE code: C – 49144), Rajapalayam is happy to be a part of Unnat Bharath Abhiyan Scheme. RIT has adopted five villages namely, Mamsapuram, Alangulam, Kallammanaickenpatti, Pillayarkulam and Jamin Kollankondan and all of them are located in Viruthunagar District of Tamil Nadu, India. As part of institutional social responsibility, RIT is proud to be a part of UBA and continue its services to the society especially rural community.
Background
Viruthunagar in Tamil Nadu is considered to be a drought hit area, where water table is very low. Most of its people work as daily wages especially in firecracker industries and other unorganized sectors. Some of them are still illiterate. It is difficult for them to manage their livelihood with the wages they are getting. The number of child laborers is still prevailing and the number of widows is also more. Efforts are needed to create awareness among the local community, improve their livelihood and education. UBA provides an opportunity for initiating such activities through its perennial award fund. Ramco Institute of Technology has carried out some of the supportive activities through this fund and the detailed report is enclosed herewith.
