As expressed by Gram Vikas
The chief concern of Gram Vikas has always been to work for the empowerment and development of Tribal Villages. This village is a typical example of Gram Vikas' ITDP programme activities. The long history of about 20 years of interaction with this village brings out all the experiments and struggles that Gram Vikas has had in dealing with Tribal Development issues.
It has been one of the first Tribal villages that gram Vikas began working with. Till date the development efforts have not reached completion and there is a still lot more that Gram Vikas wishes to accomplish.
As seen by the team
The village at Bikaspur is an excellent example of how a poor community with absolutely no resources can still achieve their dream of having a stable and well-planned house with all other amenities such as a private toilet and piped water right into their homes.
It brings out Gram Vikas' role of organizing the people, educating them on their rights and helping them build their own habitats, which they could only dream of. Moreover, it proves that if people collect together in a united effort they can bring about a change in their living conditions.
