The Aasra Sewa Santhan project of Asha for Education has, in the last eight years, focused on a number of things – including children’s education, public rights, and employment guarantee. This is done primarily through NGO enforcement and utilization of the Right to Information Act of 2005 and the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA). We work primarily with the underserved and unheard group that is the Mushahar tribe. This new project is a comprehensive one unlike anything we’ve taken on before; however, our history in social work and full-time commitment to the betterment of the Mushahar people will ensure that this project creates the great impact we can possible muster.
