New Delhi: In the last 62 years the Badarpur Khadar village in North-East Delhi could not see electricity. Nor road, drinking water and school. With the Delhi-based Muslim NGO Human Welfare Foundation deciding to adopt it, the village can now hope for some light.
A delegation of the NGO comprising its President educationist Saiyid Hamid, General Secretary K Siddique Hassan and Mohammad Jafar, Vice President, Jamaat-e-Islami Hind, met Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit on October 24 and offered to adopt the village to set up and run a primary school, a dispensary and a vocational technical school there.
The NGO submitted a memorandum to the chief minister detailing that it visited the village after a media report and found it lacking all primary civic amenities.
“The Badarpur Khadar Village is a part of Karawal Nagar Assembly Segment of Delhi Pradesh, just 20 km from CM’s office. The village has a population of above 5000 and falls in the Karawal Nagar Assembly segment. A delegation of Human Welfare Foundation visited the village on 19.10.09 . This village does not have roads, electricity, school, dispensary, fair price shop and even NREGA Scheme. Most of the children and women reportedly are affected by dust allergy. These poor people have become destitute in their own home land,” reads the memorandum.
The HWF has proposed in the memorandum that it will set up and manage a primary school, a dispensary and will also run a vocational technical school if the Govt. provides them 2 acres of land.
In order to redeem this destitute village, the NGO has urged the government to provide following facilities: e lectricity, sanitation, B.T. approach road…brick or cc, village road, fair price shops and NREGA scheme.

NEW DELHI: A delegation of the Delhi-based Human Welfare Foundation, which runs several NGOs, met Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit on Saturday and offered to set up and manage a primary school, a dispensary and a vocational technical school at Madanpur Khadar village in North-East Delhi which 62 years after Independence still lacks these basic facilities and also has no power or drinking water supply.
The delegation, led by Foundation general secretary K. A. Siddique Hassan, also submitted a memorandum to Ms. Dikshit stating that it visited the village on October 19 after a report appeared in The Hindu on October 11 under the title “An area of darkness in Delhi” exposing the total lack of primary civic amenities in this village which is the very picture of deprivation.
The delegation during its visit found that “this village does not have roads, electricity, school, dispensary, fair price shop and even NREGS (National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme). Most of the children and women reportedly are affected by dust allergy. These poor people have become destitute in their own homeland.”
The delegation informed Ms. Dikshit that the Foundation had in the past undertaken broad-based ameliorative work mainly in the domains of education and health in different States.
Noting that Ms. Dikshit over the years has given a fillip to public-private partnership, the Foundation said it had picked up this extremely backward area for adoption and expected government support in the matter.
The Foundation also urged the Chief Minister to provide electricity, sanitation, a proper approach road, fair price shops and NREGS in the village.
The Foundation has been working towards upliftment and empowerment of the downtrodden and underprivileged sections of society, especially Muslims, who constitute the majority of the population in Madanpur Khadar village.
