Four of us- Rahul, Yatin, Babaji and I (Harish) met today looking forward to a fun-filled SHG meeting. A friend was kind enough to lend us his office premises to conduct our meet.

We had had this argument sometime back- and there are strong adherents on both sides! Something to be said both for and against that position. But let us get the discussion more informed.

Checkout the image and the lyrics. Hope you’ll like it. Dilon mein tum apni betabiyan leke chal rahe ho…Toh zinda ho […]

Self help groups are quite in vogue in the west. In India, they are just picking up. People do not understand how SHGs can help in dealing with the problem of stammering- especially when they (SHGs) are not based on the premise of “Cure”. In spite of all the latest discoveries, which have been written […]
