RAJMERU which is the combination of two Hindi words -Raj (Sand) and Meru (Mountain), as a viable platform for discussion, sharing of information and experiences in consent to facilitate a process of democratic planning and decision making is dedicated to enable people to ultimately become the owners of all development efforts. Rajmeru with an aim to form an egalitarian and just society will stand forward to discuss, negotiate and advocate at various levels on issues of common interest.
