Result/ Impact:

very much.
• After forming the unorganized youth groups 25% of the youth have
tapped the government schemes (through the labour card, they have
received Rs. 2000 to their bank account, Government Ration food kit,
etc).
• Under NREGA many of our unorganized youth took lead receive 100
days’ work.
• Our youths have taped the government schemes for their village
like CC Road, drinking water facilities, Drainage facilities,
• Our youth are vigilant during PDS distribution in their village.
Last week in one of our pocket youths themselves went to the food
inspector Manvi and demanded to release the monthly Ration to their
village.
• 10% of our unorganized youth have succeeded to received
self-employment schemes and have implemented in the villages: cattle
sheds, sheep rearing, electrical shops, water, water harnessing,
etc.
Challenges faced:
• Many unorganized youths from our pockets have migrated to
Bangalore.
• Political influence and no proper response from the government
officials during youth government department visits results in
losing the interest in continuing follow-up.
• Financial problem also causes to go to higher authority to tap the
government schemes.
• RTI act is not able to implement properly due to political and
local leader’s influence
• Our youth are not able to tap the SCSP/TSP scheme due to lack of
support from local MLA and their approval.
