Nisha, an ordinary girl from a marginalized community, has become a true inspiration. From a young age, she supported her family by grazing cattle and fetching water. Though she longed to attend school, circumstances prevented her—until Manthan guided her on the path of education. Today, she stands as a changemaker, transforming lives through education.

Manthan’s water project has been in the run for the past 25 years. It built watersheds and implemented water regulation and harvesting systems in various villages and had an impact on around 50-60 villages. In the current date, Nosal Village has the highest total storage capacity of 252,792,674 liters of water

In the heart of Kalebelia Basti, Kotri, lives a woman whose story is nothing short of inspiring. Sarju Devi, a resident of the Bairwai community, has transformed her life through Manthan’s night school education. Once unable to read or even recognize letters, she now not only manages her household but also runs a successful small business, proving that determination and the right opportunities can change lives.

Tejaram Mali is a visionary social reformer dedicated to education, women’s empowerment, and sustainable development. Inspired by his time at the Tilonia night school in the 1980s, he founded Manthan Sanstha in 1998 to address rural challenges.
