India claims to be one of the fastest growing economies in the world, yet there is a grave question marks on the percolation of its economic and social benefits to that proportion of population living below poverty line. Over 500 million Indians live below poverty line of $1.25 a day. To put it simply, the challenges that we as a democracy face are humongous.
UTTHAN is a call to all young, passionate and enlightened minds to put their thinking caps on and come up with sustainable, marketable, economic and viable social B-Plan which can usher in a social revolution aimed at upliftment of masses at large. Lets rekindle the urge to work beyond profits, so that we can be a channel of social development.
The presentation of selected Social Business Plans by the teams from different B-Schools will be held on 6th & 7th January, 2012 at the Faculty of Management Studies, Banaras Hindu University.
