Organization History

[edit]

Nirmaan was established on February 12, 2005, by a group of students from BITS Pilani University, motivated by the ideals of Swami Vivekananda and Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. Initially, the group provided educational support to the children of workers at their university. Their work soon expanded to address broader social issues, leading to the formation of 'My India,' renamed 'Nirmaan' in 2007 and registered as a society.
