Hinsamukth Samaj Bharat Andolan

	Essay and elocution competitions to school children in about 600 Educational Institutions.
	Padayatras (in 4 states) and discussion sessions (in 12 states).
	Six Regional Meetings involving senior Gandhian activists, Parliamentarians, Journalists, writers, academics and social activists.
