core principles through institution building.

2 Annual Report 2017-18 : know what we have achieved during the year
From Director’s Desk
22 years ago, on 2nd July 1997, Janakalyan took birth to address the
peculiar issues of rehabilitated Bengali communities of Sindhanur
Rehabilitation Project. The situation then and the situation now have
huge changes. Though, there are other forces, which have acted upon
to bring these changes, but one cannot deny the positive role of
Janakalyan in making these forces to act.

Well, that was beginning of the journey and now we are somewhere
midway to reach our goal. However, we did not confine ourselves with
these rehabilitated communities but served the rural communities of
Raichur, Koppal, Dharwad, Gadag and Ballari with our innovative
initiatives. Therefore, Janakalyan has various proven models on
handsfor farmers, women and youths.

It gives me immense pleasure to share the 21st Annual Report of


Janakalyan with you on the eve of 22nd foundation day of Janakalyan. I feel
proud to share an incident with you all about a girl who is a nurse today. One fine day
she came to Janakalyan office with a request to provide her a study certificate. I was surprised
that how can Janakalyan give study certificate. She explained that she had studied in our Child Labor
School and then completed her nursing course and got selected as a nurse in government institution.
Therefore, she needs a study certificate from our Child Labor School. I had to search the old records of
2001-02 and found Malamma D/o Tirukappa from Diddigi village has studied in our Swami Vivekananda
Child Labor Special School and was mainstreamed in 2002-03. Can one imagine she is a government
nurse today? Similar is the case with Anjana Mondal of R H Colony No.2, who is a drawing teacher now.
This is what the impacts of our interventions.

There are many such impacts of our interventions on our target communities; major among these are
listed below-
 Sindhanur Rehabilitation Project was not known by very neighboring villagers; today whole
Karnataka as well as Union Government agencies/ departments are aware about its issues.
Resources in terms of government projects/ schemes are reaching these beneficiaries now. The
communities are also brought under a national umbrella; impacts of Jan Sanghatan program.
 Women have a fallback position in the family as they control resources through self help groups;
impacts of Jan Sanghatan interventions.
 Milk has become the alternative income option to most of the farmers; impact of Jan Raksha program
 Farm fresh vegetables are available in each colony as daily income sources for the farmers; impacts
of Jan Krishi program.
 Educated youths are employed in private sectors with gainful employment; impacts of Jan Shiksha.
 Uneducated youths are in unorganized sectors with happy living; impacts of Jan Udyog program.
 Farmers have gainful income from multiple sources of income from same piece of land; impacts of
Jan Jal interventions of Janakalyan.
 Sindhanur rehabilitation project has best ever connectivity with outside world. They are living
happily today.

The credit goes to our stakeholders including the resource providers and therefore, Janakalyan team as
well as its target communities shall remain indebted to you all forever……..

mpowerment – Government of India initiative to empower minority women of the country
Economic Empowerment through Leadership Development

Janakalyan has been empanelled by Government of India to implement the Nai Roshni Program in
Raichur district for 2017-20 period based on its best Year Batch Women Blocks
performance and track record in past (2013-14 onward). Further, 2013-14 5 125 Raichur

Leadership dated 24-03-2018. In addition, value addition to the Total 37 925 Raichur District
program during the year was economic empowerment of
selected trained women. However, due to the sanction in the fag-end of the year, Janakalyan could not
implement the program during the current financial year but all necessary preparations are completed.

Handholding support: As per the norm of the Nai Roshni Program, monthly hand holding meeting was
organized for all the 15 batches of women trained in 2016-17. Several issues came up in each of the 12
meetings
conducted for
every batch
of trained
women,
which are
addressed in
appropriate
manner.

Impacts: It is seen during the handholding meeting that many of the trained women have gained lots of
skills, especially in terms accessing the government schemes and interacting with the government
officials.

Employment – doubling farmers income through multi-tier cropping


Chain completion approach with diversified cropping pattern

Land fragmentation combined with lack of irrigation has reduced productivity to any extent. Doubling the
income from same piece of land is the only way towards survival of farming communities. Janakalyan has
such a tested model and is proved replicable in 2 different contexts. The model is introduced way back in
2001 with the support of Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and experimented with the financial support of Hivos,
NABARD and such other donors with following farmers.
2001-02 2002-03 2003-04 2004-05 2005-06 2012-13 2013-14 2014-15

Chain Completion: Agriculture, can become sustainable and profit-making, if and only if, the output of
one intervention becomes inputs for the other. Janakalyan has evolved a proven model with chain
completion approach as under-

 Our proven model is wo/man centric


 Intervention begins with excavation of a water bank; where the excess water during rainy season is
harvested for future use for irrigation and animals.
 Fish is cultivated in the water bank, which is food for wo/man; it also provides drinking water
 Animals are purchased with the financial support from SHG promoted among these woman
 Cow gets water from water bank, provides cow dung to biogas plant and milk to wo/man
 Biogas slurry is used as input for vermicompost and the energy is used or lighting and cooking
 Decomposed cow dung is used as manure for soil health improvement, which in turn creates healthy
environment for wo/man
 Healthy soil provides chemical-free crops to animals, organic food to wo/man and crop-wastes to
biogas plant and thus the cycle completes

E nvironment – ‘Water Bank’ ensures food security to nation; nation shall secure the farmers
More Crop Per Drop

Like rural godowns, water bank concept needs to promoted by government is our argument since 2
decades; rural godowns are to arrest loss of food grains, similarly water banks are to arrest runoff in the
farm to ensure critical irrigation in peak season. Give2Asia (DF Fund) support was sought to prove this
model and following farmers have taken the pain of experimenting it before declaring this as a proven
model for tail end farmers of any irrigation project in India.

Water Bank Created 10 27 8 45 50 35 175

Pension: While working with farmers for decades, Janakalyan has realized that like government
employees, the farmers must also be eligible for PENSION after attaining the age of 60. A farmer,
throughout his/her life, work like a gambler to ensure food security to the nation. The loss or profit is his
own. Given him assured source of irrigation, he can assure food security, is what Janakalyan learnt in
these decades of experiments. Therefore, we now advocate for a fixed pension to each such farmer, who
has dedicated his/her life in farming to ensure food security at his/her own risk. The modalities could be
worked out but the pension should be fixed by the government soon.

contributes very small amount through GiveIndia.org which, jankalyana.org transfers to the needy and
deserving children at critical time. The facilities provided are-
1) Education kit (Reaching the Unreached): Many students drop out as their parents cannot provide
those items which are not provided by Government in the schools. Janakalyan identifies such
potential victims of drop out and support them with an education kit containing a school bag, note
books, pen, pencils, sharpener, water bottle, geometry box, scale, etc. which are essential items but
not provided by any other agencies.
2) Scholarship (Beti Bachao Beti Padao): The students passing out from schools (10th standard) are
potential victims of child marriage/labor. We identify such children and provide one-time support of
Rs.2000 to get admission in 11th standard for post metric education.
3) Stipend (Beti Bachao Beti Padao): Those who continue their post metric education, we provide
them a monthly support of Rs.400 towards meeting the education expenses.
Many of these children are perusing their graduation and other professional courses today; however, still
there is a long way to go to bring all such children under the umbrella of post metric education.

E nergy – Sansad Adarsh Gram Yojana to mitigate climate change & global warming
Climate Change & Global Warming

Sindhanur Rehabilitation Project has been taken up as SAGY (Sansad Adarsh Gram Yojana) by local
Member of Parliament. An integrated village development plan is prepared for holistic development of
this project with government and private partnership. Janakalyan took the pioneering role in preparing the
perspective plan.

Global warming is an alarming phenomenon today directly affecting all of us; it is thus the responsibility
of all of us to mitigate it to the extent possible. Though, Janakalyan does not have any funding support to
run a program on it, but still advocating the climate change mitigating methods to its target communities.
As part of Sansad Adarsh Gram Yojana, Janakalyan convince MP Sri Karadi Sanganna to take up solar
street light as the 1st intervention. Accordingly, 100 solar street lights have been put with the MPLADS of
Sri Karadi Sanganna in 6 villages of Sindhanur Rural Gram Panchayat.

Community Led Total Sanitation(CLTS), Nirmal Gram Puraskar (NGP), Total Sanitation Program (TSP),
Sanitary Park (SP), Open Defecation Free (ODF), etc. are some of the initiatives of Janakalyan to make
Raichur district open defecation free. Social engineering part of the Swachh Bharat Mission is completed
by Janakalyan long back and the result is seen today in terms of construction of toilets.

Efforts have been put to understand why the toilets are mostly not been used by rural Indians. It is opined

by them that maintaining hygienic condition is difficult by them. Further exploration concluded that lack
of cleaning tools is the obstacle in maintaining hygienic condition. Therefore, Janakalyan formulated a
program to provide critical cleaning tools to the families having toilets to inculcate the habits so that later
they continue the practice. Commencing from 2010-11, Janakalyan has reached to 392 families by now
with the support of www.giveindia.org.

Impact Assessment
Impacts on primary target group of Janakalyan

This chapter is earmarked for documenting long term impacts of our interventions on our primary target
groups including Bengali refugees of Sindhanur Rehabilitation Project. These impacts are not of the
immediate interventions but of the efforts of several years.

Citizenship: Janakalyan has initiated a process at national level through Nikhil Bharat, an unregistered
forum, to fight for the rights of these communities and government has now realized its necessity and
assured for appropriate action. Government of India has introduced The Citizenship Amendment Bill
2016 to Parliament to provide citizenship to the communities, who have crossed the border due to
religious persecution. Several rounds of meeting with Union Home Minister Sri Rajnath Singh and Union
Parliamentary Affairs Minister Sri Anant Kumar and MPs have made it possible. Meeting held with Sri B
S Yadiyurappa, former CM of Karnataka, Sri Prahlad Joshi, Sri Sanganna Karadi, Sri Shobha Karandlaze,
Sri Basavaraj Patil Sedam, Sri Sriramulu, etc. to support the bill in Parliament.

Scheduled Caste Status: The rehabilitated communities of Sindhanur Rehabilitation Project have not
voluntarily come but been rehabilitated by Government of India without giving any choice to them. In the
process of rehabilitation, siblings of same parents have been rehabilitated in different states. Now, one
rehabilitated in eastern states are enjoying the scheduled caste status and its benefits while one who have
been rehabilitated in Karnataka is deprived off the same. Whose fault is this? The struggle to include
Namasudra, Pod/ Poundra and Rajbansi in the SC list started with inception of Janakalyan in 1997 and a
file bearing No SWD 157 SAD 2009 was created in 2009. Continuous efforts of Janakalyan and through
Nikhil Bharat after 2011 compelled Government of Karnataka to form a 4-members high level committee
headed by Additional Chief Secretary of Karnataka was constituted on 26.03.2013. A detailed study was
conducted by the team and final recommendation was submitted by the High Level Committee on
11.07.2014 with a recommendation to submit the proposal to Government of India.

Continuous follow up compelled Government of Karnataka to pass a resolution in the cabinet on


18.05.2017 and recommended to Government of India to include these castes in the Karnataka State list
of SC vide letter No. SWD 157 SAD 2009 dated 27.05.2017. However, since the proposal was not in
prescribed format and necessary enclosures, the same was returned back by Government of India vide its
letter No.12016/25/2001- SCD (R.L.Cell)- Karnataka dated 21.06.2017. Accordingly, Dr B R Ambedkar
Research Institution, Bangalore is assigned the task of conducting socio-anthropological report vide letter
No.SWD 157 SAD 2009 dated 29.08.2017. A team from Dr B R Ambedkar Research Institute has
conducted the study and waiting them to submit the report. Janakalyan played the major role in providing
the necessary inputs for the study.

Mother Tongue: Mother tongue education is a constitutional right but the Bengalis rehabilitated in
Sindhanur were in dark all these years. However, with constant efforts of a year, Government of
Karnataka has already issued an order to recruit Bengali teachers in all government schools vide ED 34
PMC 2012 on 31.12.2012 but yet the department is ensuring the Bengali teaching through temporary
teachers. Sri Ajay Seth, IAS, Additional Chief Secretary to Government of Karnataka has initiated the
process of permanent recruitment of Bengali teachers vide his letter No.ACS/P&S/112/2017 dated
01.09.2017 vide which he has also included 3 High Schools in addition to the existing 8 primary schools.

Land Rights: It was at the cost of the land and ancestral properties of these rehabilitated communities,
India got freedom. In lieu of their ancestral properties, they have been provided with 4-5 acres of land
during their rehabilitation but yet they are not the owners of the land. An effort initiated and government
has now decided to transfer them the entitlements and already initiated the survey of the land. The survey

of R H Colony No.4 and R H Colony No.5 is already completed during 2016-17 but remaining 3 colonies
are yet to be conducted. A meeting with Sri Amlan Biswas, IAS, Secretary to Government, Department of
Labor helped us to convince local Assistant Commissioner, Smt Divya, IAS followed by a meeting. She
has initiated the action to continue the survey vide letter No. Rev/Rehabilitation/2017-18 dated 4.09.2017.

Child Labor to Nurse/ Drawing Teacher

Can one believe that Ms Malamma (12 years 2001-02) D/o Tirukappa, R/o Diddgi village in
Sindhanur taluk, who was a child labor, is a nurse in Government Institution today? Yes, she
is. She was a student of Swami Vivekananda Child Labor Special School, Diddigi in 2001-02
and then mainstreamed to Government Primary School, Diddigi in 2002-03 in 7th standard. She
has now completed her nursing course and obtained a job in Government Institution.

Ms Anjana Mondal D/o Hiraman, R/o R H Colony No.2 of Sindhanur taluk is a Government
Drawing Teacher today after studying in Maa Sarada Child Labor Special School, R H Colony
No.2. She was mainstreamed to Government Primary School, R H Colony No.2 in 6th standard
in 2001-02 and now she is a government teacher.

Can anyone imagine the impacts of our interventions? What shall have been the fate of these
child labors? Both of them are married and living a happy life with dignity and pride. During
their last visit to Janakalyan, they did not find words to express their gratitude to Janakalyan.

These schools were established by the order of the then Depurty Commissioner of Raichur, Sri
Ashok Dalwai, IAS vide letter No.NCLPS/51/98-99 dated 8.4.1999.

Ideas in Incubation
Journey ahead to Janakalyan – support seeking from donor communities
21 years of continuous efforts of Janakalyan brought many changes amongst the target groups. During this period,
we have also proved many hypothesis and come up with many replicable and scalable models for the deserving
target groups. These models along with many other useful ideas/ interventions have been planned for the rural India
for 2018-19 and we seek generous support from the donor communities.
Janakalyan proposes to achieve the following in the years to come assuming similar supports and cooperation from
its stakeholders in future too….
1. Beti Bachao Beti Padao: The refugee-communities reside more than 20km away from the taluk headquarter
and thus almost all the girls drop their education after matriculation and become victims of child marriage. The
Maa Sarada Pre University College started by Janakalyan must cater to these needs of refugees.
2. Rural Skill Improvement: Land fragmentation and child marriages/ labors are the reasons for disguised
employment in agriculture. To tap the biggest potential available within the rural artisans, we need Community
Training Center which Raichur district lacks and Janakalyan wishes to establish a full fledge capacity
enhancement cum knowledge center for the rural artisans on all aspects of rural lives and livelihoods.
3. Rehabilitated Community Issues: Issues related to rehabilitated refugees in India are many and peculiar which
demands special qualities to understand and address. Janakalyan began its development journey through these
refugees and acquired expertise in handling their issues. There is a great demand for bringing all refugees of
India under a common umbrella and Janakalyan believes that it is the single agency in India which can
strategically address their valid issues in due course of time.
4. Replication of Proven Model: The proven models of Janakalyan like Water Banks for livelihood
improvement of tail end farmers, Wage Earners (WE) Groups, Agriculture Interest Groups (AIG),
Neighborhood Groups (NHG), GNAN (Garibi Nirmoolan Avartan Nidhi), etc. shall be replicated in other parts
of the state and across the country.

The Annual Action Plan of Janakalyan for 2018-19 approved by General Board includes the following major
activities, which seeks your support in translating them on field.

Footsteps of Janakalyan…………….
More than 2 Decades in the service of mankind

21st year (2017-18) of www.jankalyana.org confined most of interventions to vulnerable communities like
Year of legal battle

muslims women, refugees rights, etc. and most of its time has to be spent to legal battle which also reached
to Supreme Court in the case of Subodh Biswas and 53 others in the Silapathat case of Assam. The legal
2017-18

battle initiated for refugee rights in terms citizenship, mother tongue education, land rights, etc. A case is
filed in Karnataka High Court also for eviction of illegal encroachment of public roads. Therefore, could not
concentrate on fundraising and the result was drastic drop in resources and thus activities.
20th year (2016-17) was fully meant for refugees. In addition, the government of India supported Nai Roshni
– leadership development of minority women, empowerment of leprosy affected communities continued
Year of Trimming

during the year. Although, there was a setback in terms of financial growth and accordingly the staff strength
2016-17

was also trimmed out. However, meeting with high level dignitaries like Union Home Minister,
Parliamentary Affairs Minister, Former Chief Minister of Karnataka, several MPs, MLAs, IAS officers of
topmost ranks continued to obtain the citizenship rights, social reservation, land rights, mother language
education rights, etc.
19th year (2015-16) was a meaningful year for the target groups of Janakalyan. We realized that the concepts,
Year of Adoption

which have been in execution by Janakalyan, have been announced by Government of India. These are More
2015-16

Crop Per Drop, Intensified Integrated Farming System (Bunch of Crops in Inch of land), Post-metric
education of adolescent girls (Beti Bachao Beti Padao), Rural Entrepreneurship Development (Skill
Development), etc. Therefore, the year is termed as Year of Adoption.
Janakalyan completed 18th year of operation in 2014-15! Whole efforts were concentrated in ensuring post-
metric education to rural children through its own institute to avoid child marriage / child labor. In addition,
Rural Education

scholarship @ Rs.2000 pa, monthly stipend of Rs.400 pm, artisan tool kits to supplement family income to
2014-15

ensure children are in schools, etc. are some initiatives to improve rural education. Establishing mother
language education through government schools was another effort. Government of Karnataka recommended
to consider Bengali communities to consider as SC in Karnataka. In addition, the regular initiatives
continued.
The year 2013-14 being 17th year of Janakalyan, it is termed as year of Paradigm Shift; shift is seen in
diversification of activities within its programmatic framework of 7Es (Environment, Education,
Paradigm Shift

Employment, Entrepreneurship, Empowerment, Energy and Ensuring health for all living being) by taking
2013-14

up research activities with the support ICSSR, leadership training to minority women with the 1st ever GoI
fund to Janakalyan, entrepreneurship among leprosy affected beggars and many more. However, more time
was also spent for refugee rights during the year while more investment was on the education institute
initiated by Janakalyan. It has also integrated payment gateway for online donation.
The year 2012-13 is 16th year of Janakalyan existence! It was earmarked for fighting for the rights of its
primary target groups, the Bengali refugees. Accordingly, succeeded to ensure Bengali teaching in
Fight for Rights

government schools and the day was celebrated on 1st March 2013 as Matribhasha Vijay Divas and a
2012-13

Matribhasha Vijay Stambh was unveiled. Maa Sarada PU College building was inaugurated on 8th January
2013 on the eve of 160th Birth Anniversary of Holy Mother Sarada. Government of Karnataka issued a
gazette notification to consider providing reservation to these Bengalis.
The year 2011-12 being 15th year of existence of Janakalyan, to make it meaningful it is declared as “Child
Care Year” and accordingly the activities were focused on child empowerment. Supporting refugee girls’
education, providing education kits to the children, major operation of a cute girl and above all, opening a
new college for the refugee children are notable activities during the year. Developed Sexual Harassment
Child Care Year

Policy 2011 and relooked at all operational policies of Janakalyan like Service Rules 2001, Procurement
2011-12

Policy 2005, Gender Policy 2007, and Investment Policy 2011. Credibility Alliance accredited Janakalyan
under desirable norms of highest standard in governance, accountability and transparency. The new website
designed with www.jankalyana.org instead of www.jankalyan.in. Janakalyan Annual Report 2010-11 was

Year of Replication
The year (2010-11) marked completion of 14 years in the sector of rural development; Janakalyan started
replication of its innovative models demonstrated successfully during the journey of development in other
similar context. Identification of similar area and donors continued during the year and succeeded to initiate

fundraising through GiveIndia registration, accreditation by Credibility Alliance, affiliation to Bharat
Welfare Trust, lifetime renewal of 80G of IT Act, etc.
The year (2009-10) marked completion of 13 years in the sector of rural development; in its history of these
Disaster Management

13 years, never entered into emergency management activities. Janakalyan initiated gradual phasing out from
Raichur district during previous year but due to an emergency call of the nature in the operational area,
2009-10

Janakalyan had to initiate disaster management activities in the flood affected villages of Sindhanur on
humanitarian ground. The intervention concentrated on ensuring rights of children and women in flood
affected villages and successfully implemented in 10 villages.
The year (2008-09) is the 12th year of operation in Raichur district and at this juncture Janakalyan board felt
that Janakalyan needs to compress its activities in Raichur and move in some other area. It started trimming
Year of New Era

its staff-size from the beginning of the year as well as programs. Study in other districts of Karnataka as well
2008-09

as research on potential donors started during the year. Janakalyan also done major surgeries to its
operational strategies, amended its byelaws, changed its board structure and composition and many more. To
sum up, it could be said that Janakalyan took new birth with new spirit.
The year (2007-08) is the year of expansion both in terms of area of operation as well as its role change.
UNICEF appointed Janakalyan as the nodal agency for its programs in Raichur district and the prestigious

Year of

image and for any developmental initiatives, Janakalyan is provided with the first opportunity. Janakalyan
has developed a corpus during this year. Janakalyan also established a campus of its own.
The year 2005-06 could be termed as year of HRD wherein Janakalyan had to recruit more than 150 staffs at
HRD Year

various cadres and train them in various sectors to carry out the activities undertaken in the district. The
2005-06

staffs are recruited in each and every village of the Sindhanur block. Similarly the project inflow was also
very high and many activities had to be implemented in parallel.
The 9th year (2004-05) is recorded as the year for diversification. Janakalyan has expanded its area of
Diversificatio

operation and reached each and every village of Sindhanur taluk as well as neighboring taluks also. Further,

JANAKALYAN: An Institution for Innovation Integrated Inspiring Interventions 21


The year 2002-03 is the year for sustainability of the organization. Sustainability of an Organization is
nothing but having a dedicated professional team of Human Resource and a constant flow of Financial
Year of Sustainability

Resources. Towards this, Janakalyan put all the effort to have a competent team by recruiting a set of fresh
graduates because they could be tuned according to the vision and mission of Janakalyan. Many efforts were
2002-03

put to see that the programs as well as the organization become sustainable. Janakalyan received FCRA and
exemption under section 12A of IT Act, 1961. We received first foreign grant for Cotton Based Integrated
Farming System development program. Janakalyan got lot of publicity during the year through NABARD
supported Jana-Udyog program. The area of operation was extended to outside the block as well as district.
The administrative Office was established at Marutinagar, Jawalgera.
The year 2001-2002 is the year of transformation. After proper training of the top management, it realized
Year of Professionalization

that till date Janakalyan was functioning without proper planning. Planning Meeting was introduced for the
first time in the organization to organize the activities in a systematic way after assessing the needs of the
community in a participatory way. The organization also gave emphasis on professionalizing the approach
2001-02

by recruiting the qualified employees like B.V.Sc., M.Tech., MSW, M.Com., MA graduates. A detailed
Service Rules for Janakalyan was also adopted during the year. A few sets of innovative programs also got
introduced during the year. The year is termed as Mass Mobilization Year because lot of efforts was put to
organize the community in demanding their rights from the concerned authorities.
The year 2000-01 is an important year for Janakalyan wherein the top management of the organization
undergone various training at renown Institutes. Therefore, the same programs were continued during the
Year of Self Initiative

year without much difference. However, the major step initiated during the year was formation of a Cluster
