C.S.R. POLICY & PROJECTS

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) implies a concept, whereby companies decide

voluntarily to contribute to a better society and a cleaner environment – a concept, whereby
the companies integrate social and other useful concerns in their business operations for the
betterment of their stakeholders and society in general in a voluntary way.

Section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("Act") provides that certain companies must
mandatorily contribute a certain amount towards CSR activities.

NMDC has been taking up CSR Projects/activities in the vicinity, based on identified needs
and availability of Funds, in various Sectors like:
 10

1. Drinking water : Water is one of the basic needs for human beings. Recognizing the fact that
safe drinking water is related to the health and well being of the community, NMDC has taken up
different initiatives to provide access to safe drinking water in various parts of the country
especially for those living in rural regions. This has been done primarily by creating necessary
infrastructural support required to access safe drinking water.
2. Education: Recognizing that education is an integral component for human development,
NMDC has been contributing in different ways to improve not only the literacy levels, but also the
quality of education in the areas of its operations. In this endeavor, the focus is constantly on
improving educational infrastructure and providing necessary facilities for students with a view to
provide conducive environment to continue studies and enhance overall learning.
● Shiksha Sahayog Yojana: Scholarship scheme for tribal students to encourage education beyond
8th standard -benefit to 18,000 students. The scheme has evolved into Balika Shiksha Sahayog
Yojana supporting girl child education. ● Balika Shiksha Yojana: Sponsoring 40 tribal girls to
Nursing courses. ● Education Hub: partnered with Govt. of Chhattisgarh for creation of Education
Hub, a concentrated facility of educational institutions to provide world class infrastructure in the
midst of backward Dantewada District.
3. A large section of population does not have access to reliable health services in large parts of
India. Realizing the fact that our projects are located in remote and backward areas, NMDC has
taken encouraging steps in providing reliable health services to such areas. The healthcare
initiatives undertaken are a unique mix of preventive as well as curative healthcare and include
community awareness and mobilization activities on issues related to personal hygiene, safe
sanitation and cleanliness practices.
Key Highlights
● Providing Free medi-care services at Project Hospitals. ● Providing basic medi-care facilities at
the door-steps of remote villagers through operation of mobile health vans equipped with requisite
medical equipment and trained medical staff. ● Creation of Healthcare infrastructure. ●
Sponsoring Tribal Girls of Bastar Division to pursue career in medical field to make available
trained manpower locally. ● Conducting free health camps for health check-ups and treatment.

4. Healthcare One of the earliest CSR initiatives of NMDC. NMDC started extending free medical
facilities to the local populace from the day, they were made available to its employees. NMDC
runs three hospitals at its mines, out of which two are in collaboration with M/s Apollo and one
with M/s Yashoda Hospitals offering free medical treatment not only to staff but to the local
communities as well. On an average about 1,00,000 out-patients and 10,000 in-patients per annum
are provided free treatment at these hospitals, which includes nutritious diet for in-patients. These
 11

Project Hospitals have proved to be of immense benefit for the local communities who earlier had
no hospitals nearby. The low levels of Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) & Maternal Mortality Rate
(MMR) of Dantewada District when compared to most other districts in Chhattisgarh, are a
testimony to the fact that the local populace is immensely benefitting by the health care services
provided by NMDC.

5. Integrated village development: Realizing the need to improve the overall socio economic
profile of the tribal villages which have historically been marked by isolation and lack of
development, NMDC took an initiative in 2009 to bring a change in the overall profile of these
village by taking up varied and multi dimensional developmental initiatives. Together these
initiatives have been termed as Integrated Village Development. The idea behind IVD is to
transform these villages into model villages through a host of developmental activities. The canvas
of developmental work undertaken in these villages range from healthcare, education,
infrastructure development to income enhancement by promoting agriculture and non agriculture
based livelihood opportunities. Key Highlights ● Specialized NGO engaged to support execution.
● Detailed assessments conducted to identify the gaps and prepare village specific action plan for
village development. ● Incorporation of Gender parity component; women specific programmes
integrated in the execution plan.
6. Rural Development: Sound infrastructure plays a very large role in enhancing the overall
profile of the village and its overall development. Realizing this fact, NMDC is actively involved
in creation of infrastructure facilities across different parts of the country. Investment on creation
of infrastructure becomes all the more important since most of the villages around Project
locations are remotely located having weak or almost no infrastructural facilities. NMDC has taken
up this task of creating infrastructural facilities in difficult geographic regions, far off and remote
with an objective to help local communities gain opportunities for overall socio economic
development.
Key Highlights ● Construction of Roads, Bridges in surrounding villages of NMDC Projects. ●
Construction of community centers for the village community. ● Providing solar energy based
electrification solution for villages.
7. Other Development :
 Infrastructure Development works in Livelihood College, Adawal
● Construction of Transit Hostel/ Night shelter at Madpal & Nagarnar
● Construction of culverts at various places in Sukma District
● Development of Agriculture , Milk Dairies & Poultry Farming in Dantewada dist to promote
agriculture & animal husbandry for livelihood enhancement of the local communities.

related works in diff Gram Panchayats of Kuakonda/katekalyan in Dantewada District.
● Developmental works in gram panchayats of katekalyan and kuakonda (roads, drainage,
