New Delhi: The Human Welfare Foundation (HWF) has adopted Malik Pallupura village in Moradabad district of Uttar Pradesh. The Delhi-based NGO has launched several development projects to turn it into a ‘model village’. On 1st May, Hamid Bin Ali Alma’ani, Ambassador of Oman for India, kicked off several development schemes by the NGO for the village.
HWF decided to adopt Malik Pallupura village after sending a team of experts to survey and assess the social, economic and educational conditions of the village. HWF chalked out a three-year plan to achieve its target to make it as a model village free from all types of backwardness. The plan includes building of orphanages, homes for poor, a vocational training centre for girls and implementation of all government development schemes for the village.
Chief Guest on the launch of the project was Ambassador of Oman for India, Hamid Bin Ali Alma’ani. He laid the foundation stone of development plans for the village in the inaugural function held on 1st May.
Terming the relations between India and Oman as very strong, Mr. Hamid Ali lauded such type of efforts while addressing the function.
A sewing class centre was inaugurated and key of a house built under the scheme was handed over to a homeless person, Khalil Ahmed in the function.
HWF’s General Secretary, K. A. Siddique Hassan invited the social, political and local persons to work jointly to take the village out of backwardness. He said, ‘need of the hour is to come out to play a role in it, instead of just registering complaints, so that the blot of backwardness can be removed.’
Veteran Member of Parliament Shafiqur Rahman Burq also lauded the efforts of HWF and addressed the villagers.
Prominent personalities like Shia leader Muzaffar Hussain Turabi, Jamaat-e-Islami Hind UP’s President Mohammed Ahmed, Abdul Hamid Adam, former mayor of Muradabad Humayun Qadeer and a big gathering of villagers also present in the function. National Coordinator of HWF Saleemullah Khan coordinated the function.
