Isha Gramotsavam

Isha has been deeply involved in the Action for Rural Rejuvenation (ARR): a project undertaken for the upliftment of the rural Tamil Nadu. ARR has come as a great source of rejuvenation in the lives of the village community. Also, not to forget the Tsunami relief work and the restoration of the ravaged lives of the coastal community. As a celebration of this project, Gramotsavam is held annually.

Project Greenhands, a massive tree plantation project aimed at restoring the disappearing green cover of Tamil Nadu to the optimal 33%, already did a Guinness record last year for the maximum number of tree plantations in one day. This year's continued drive of GreenHands is going to be kicked start on the day of Gramotsavam. Details can be found at http://gramotsavam.ishafoundation.org/project-green-hands/

This year, it is going to be happening in Anna University grounds on Sept 23, 2007. I sincerely hope at least the Chennai-ites make to this gala event.
