I Came across an article about Ms.Lakshmi venkataraman, in a Newspaper. My views.
Accolades to Ms. Lakshmi Venkataraman, daughter of R. Venkataraman, former President of India, for establishing a trust named Bharatiya Yuva Shakthi trust. (BYST). She gave up her lucrative job in the AT and T- Bell Laboratories in the US and return to India way back in 1990 and established BYST.
The aim of BYST is to help nurture underprevilaged youth in thr 18-35 age group to start successful enterprises guided by a mentor. Mentoring is a distinctive feature of this project.
Assistance is provided by BYST by supplementing financing, based on the requirement assessment and lending training support. Monitoring and networking are also offered.
Launched by Prince Charles in New Delhi in 1992, it replicates the Prince's Youth Trust Model successfully outside UK.
Each one of us should, after reaching a stage in life, should think about giving back to our society what we have got from it so that the downtrodden and underprevilaged are also benefitted
