of the world”.
The Ashrama has adopted six major objectives for

imparted to the grass root level young farmers
and school drop-outs, especially belonging to the
backward section of rural community, in modern
technology as applicable to the field of agriculture
and allied areas for increasing per unit land area

become self reliant.

spirit of community living, developing sense of
co-operation, acquiring youth leadership qualities,
instilling group action and self-confidence with a
view to promote national integration at all levels.
