Lok Chetna Samiti (LCS) is an innovative inter-religious common venture for community building at the grassroots level.

A Spain based NGO funded the construction of a hostel building for the girls which was inaugurated in July 2017. Asha for Education funds the cost of the day-to-day operations of the girls’ hostel.
