Comprehensive Rural Development Programme (CRDP)
People of resources must contribute towards making a better tomorrow for all who come in contact and we consider it our privilege to improving the lives of the people that come in contact with us around our project sites/ cement complex while we endeavor in the task of nation building.
An altruistic CRDP based on a meticulously conducted survey was started in 1993 to assist in the development of 18 villages around Jaypeenagar, Rewa [M.P].
The activities of CRDP include free
medical camps, free animal care camps, launching
literacy campaign both for young girls and adult
education, delivering safe drinking water supply and
creating huge water reservoirs in different villages,
creating opportunities for self employment and other
social activities including renovation of old temples,
other schools and hospital buildings in the adjoining
adopted villages. Initially, when the programme was
implemented 13 villages were covered but subsequently 13
more villages were added. The 26 villages till date
covered under the CRDP programme are Naubasata, Garhwa,
Atrauli, Sumeda, Kachoor, Chijjwar, Tewni, Madheypur,
Sonra, Baijnath, Khamariya, Bholgarh, Turki, Bankuiyan,
Sakarwat, Darhi, Marha, Sagoni, Narora, Hinoti, Bihara,
Kauadhan, Jonhi, Dengrahat, Bela, and Devmaudaldal.
The activities are carried out on a regular and continual basis and thus far the following initiatives have been undertaken.
Drinking water/Water Supply in selected areas
Till date 184 hand pumps, 25 bore wells and 10
water taps have been provided in adopted villages and
nearby areas of the cement complex, and 6 Nos.Community
water supply schemes have been provided in these
villages.
Self Employment
To help the ladies of adopted villages to
become self-reliant, tailoring classes are organised
by the Sansthan. Qualified lady teachers who are paid
for their services by the Sansthan conduct these
classes. On successful completion of the training
course, each lady was is given one Sewing Machine free
of cost. From 1996 onwards, 15 such classes were
conducted and 291 ladies had been put through this
training successfully. A group of selected village
women were trained in making Papads and Wadis.
Village Roads
A noble scheme was launched to connect all
villages covered under CRDP to the main arteries
running to Cement Complex from Rewa/ Satna National
Highway by proper all weather W.B.M. roads.

One Balwadi was started on trial basis in village Atrauli in the
