Feedback from camp attendees
1. Anirudh Shirodkar – Training gave me the confidence to face situations in life.
2. Kavita – I live in an area dominated by another community. If something adverse happens there, I now have the confidence to face and counter it using the techniques taught here.
3. Vignesh Sapre – Hindu Janajagruti Samiti is doing good work. We should create awareness about this in the society and protect our scriptures, Nation & Dharma.
Some parents who attended the camp with their children shared that now they strongly feel that their children should also contribute to the service of Nation & Dharma.
