Promoting People’s Action through Lok Samiti:
Under the umbrella of Lok Samiti, a grassroots movement founded by Loknayak Jayaprakash Narayan in 1977, NBJK organized 21 peaceful events this year. These events, which attracted over 4,800 participants, addressed critical social issues such as liquor prohibition, farmers’ and laborers’ rights, women’s empowerment, and the promotion of Gandhian values. The events also drew the support of prominent leaders like former Bihar Chief Minister Mr. Jitan Ram Manjhi and Union Minister Mr. Arjun Munda, further strengthening the movement’s reach and impact.

Family Counseling Services:
