Kpi, July 25 2025: HRDS India, one of India's leading NGOs working for tribal welfare, is set to launch its flagship Satgraha Housing Project in Manipur aimed at providing dignified shelter to thousands of displaced tribal families, particularly in the violence-affected regions of the state.

Thanks to the efforts of Saitu MLA and FEEDS KVK, Hengbung chairman Haokholet Kipgen, HRDS India will soon break ground in Kangpokpi district, bringing hope and relief to a population devastated by ongoing ethnic unrest.

A four-member delegation of HRDS India led by its president Swami Atma Nambi arrived at FEEDS KVK Hengbung on July 23 to assess the ground reality and identify sites for the proposed housing initiative under Satgraha.

The delegation later visited multiple relief camps and surveyed potential construction sites across Saitu assembly constituency, where the organisation plans to begin the construction of 2,000 houses in the first phase.

Swami Nambi also interacted with the media and reaffirmed HRDS India's commitment for welfare of tribal communities across the nation.

He said that Satgraha is not just about providing shelter but also restore dignity, stability and the right to a better life for those who have long been ignored.

He continued that HRDS India not only focuses on construction but also actively engages in food security, education, medical assistance and women empowerment ensuring comprehensive support for tribal societies.

Describing the current condition of displaced families as heart-breaking, Swami Nambi said that refugee-style living is unacceptable in a country striving toward inclusive development.

With thousands of families still living in relief camps due to the ongoing ethnic violence, he declared HRDS India's intention to build 60,000 homes across Manipur.
