The Begining
In July 2016, a group of educated and accomplished young individuals hailing from Patauda village came together to tackle community issues. Led by Shri Nityanand, Shri Manoj Kumar, Shri Sandeep Kumar, Shri Vikrant, Shri Dimpal, and others, they formed “Youth Brigade Patauda” to address the village's challenges. Their initiatives commenced with organising clean-up campaigns and deploying brooms and pans to tidy village streets. As their efforts gained traction, they garnered widespread support from villagers, propelling their movement forward and championing their cause. As the membership grew, the founders encountered management and financial constraints. To better serve the community's needs, the group officially registered under the Haryana Society Registration Act 2012 as "PARGATI" (People Associated for Rural Growth Along With Targeted Initiative) on February 1, 2021.
