1. PURPOSE

While all of us are impacted by the pandemic in one way or another, the economic situation of Arya Samaj Scholars, Pracharaks and Gurukuls, who solely depend on Programs of Arya Samaj, has deteriorated significantly. With no programs happening since March 2020, their situation has become grim and is expected to continue to be tough for atleast a few more months.

Arya Samaj is not just the Sunday Satsang or the samskaaras that are performed. It is a way of life. To sustain the tradition of Arya Samaj, the role of Vidvaan, Pracharaks & Gurukuls is very important. Hence, in this situation of extreme crisis, it is our moral responsibility to support them.

So Arya Samaj Chennai has taken an initiative, since 10th May 2021, to support Vedic Scholars, Pracharaks and Gurukuls for a period of 3 months. However, we need your support for that.

2. SCREENING AND SELECTION PROCESS

3. SAHYOG YOJANA TEAM

There are two groups of people involved in selection and screening.

  1. Central Sahyog committee comprising of the President, Secretary and Treasurer of Arya Samaj Chennai.
  2. Local Salaahkaars across different states of the country.

4. UPDATES AND PLAN FORWARD

This Yojana is being run in coordination with Saarvadeshik Arya Pratinidhi Sabha and Haryana Arya Pratinidhi Sabhas. We are also in discussions with few others. We invite all Prantiya Sabhas and Arya Samaj to join hands for this cause.

As of 17th July, we have received over 773 applications under this program. Of this, we have evaluated 609 so far and distributed Sahyog totaling 13 lakhs to 361 applicants. 

Our intent is to provide Sahyog to each sanctioned applicant for 3 months because Prachaara will take time to open up. While Chennai Arya Samaj is providing support for the first month, we invite other Samaj and individuals to contribute to this cause. By coming together, we are certain we can help our Pracharaks & Gurukuls tide over this unprecedented crisis.

5. FEEDBACK FROM RECIPIENTS

We share below some of the feedback we have received from various recipients of this aid (Translated from Hindi). As shared earlier, the names of recipients will remain anonymous to ensure confidentiality. 

This feedback will give you a glimpse into the situation that our Vidvaans, Pracharaks and Gurukuls are going through.

6. IMPORTANCE OF NATION-WIDE COLLABORATION FOR SAHYOG YOJANA

While we understand many Arya Samaj and individuals may be supporting Arya Vidvaans and Pracharaks, we believe it will multiply our impact if we coordinate centrally in this program. Key benefits being:

  1. If we adopt only a local approach to distributing aid, i.e., each Arya Samaj distributing aid to the local Vidvaans / Pracharaks in need, there are many places where the local Arya Samaj may not be capable of providing aid or there may not be any Samaj.
  2. A centralised selection and distribution list created with local inputs helps to ensure that proper screening is done and only worthy applicants get the aid.
  3. There is uniformity in distribution of aid – the same applicant does not get aid from multiple sources while there are other worthy applicants who may be left out.
  4. It ensures that the applicants get aid in the most respectful manner, ensuring maximum confidentiality with an assurance of regularity.
  5. It saves the effort in inviting applications, screening them and distributing aid.

Hence, we invite all Arya Samaj and individuals to unite to support and contribute to this national cause.
