India Maharaja Chhatrasal was a medieval Indian warrior who fought against the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, and established his own kingdom in Bundelkhand, becoming a Maharaja. He fought for 50 years against Mughals and captured a large part of Bundelkhand with his seat of power at Panna.
Bundelkhand, historically one of the important regions of central India, this land is now distributed between two states of India i.e Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, Comprises of hilly Vindhyan region, big and small ravines, and a plain. Rivers like Dhasan, Tons, Ken, and Betwa, in deep ravine-fringed channels, are of little use for irrigation, though there is Dam over Betwa that provides water for irrigation and electricity it is not sufficient to cope with annual requirement for water. Diamonds of good quality, though small in size, are found in mines near Panna. Wheat, grain sorghum, and cotton are the principal crops produced in this area.
Mahim Bundelkhand Utthan Samiti was established with the motive of rejuvenating this area which is facing major issues like scarcity of water, poor literacy rate, desiccated agricultural land. It also deals with other social issues like women and child rights, issues related to land and forest, grooming of children, safeguarding and spreading of its rich culture and strengthening various community-based organizations.
Mahim Bundelkhand Utthan Samiti will dedicate a small area for a vocational training school for underprivileged children from local communities like army entrance training and giving knowledge of English, Sanskrit, math, story of ancient India, physical training based upon Gurukul system.
We want to promote Yoga education, traditional medicine system like Ayurveda Homeopathy, etc for better and costless treatment.
Mahim Bundelkhand Utthan Samiti will work for awareness creation, research, training and also providing employment through various means.
Increase in water supply and development of pondscan help in improving irrigation and agriculture of Bundelkhand region.
