Pagdandi was earlier run by Hindu College Volunteers at the Jwala Ghat slum community along the Yamuna. Presently, our volunteers are working with a small community called 'Mahigeer' across the Kudsia Ghat. The work so far has been commendable and we have established a special relationship with the children and elders in the community.
 
Context
 


In the course of our work on the Yamuna, Swechha realized that the people who live along the banks of the River need attention as much as the River herself. The condition of those settled along the Delhi banks is particularly dismal. Most of them either work as rag pickers, coin divers or boatmen, their children never receiving the education they ought to in order for them to rise above the vicious cycles of poverty. We thus began "Pagdandi School" where our committed volunteers would teach small groups of children who lived and worked along the Yamuna in Delhi.
