The villagers were left with a bleak prospect with no finance to nourish the family. |
 The team at Sarav Dharam Manav Sewa Mission noted the dejected situation and decided to make a difference to the villagers’ life. Sant Makhan Singh Ji visited the villagers, listened to their concerns and offered support. On 29th April 2010, all village residents were given 50-50kgs of wheat each to allow their families to survive through the Indian summers. In these remote areas where no-one offers support to their family members let alone others, it was Sarav Dharam Manav Sewa Mission that played its part by offering support to the common man.
