Dear Youth From The North East in Mumbai and Pune
Last week on behalf of EWIF I wrote about our intended role in North East Rural Empowerment and livelihood creation. I also explained that the intended projects would be those of NER people and ours was a role of providing assistance in making the effort an organised one. I hoped for the understanding of persons from the NER in the matter.
I would now like to comment on our efforts to help NER youngsters in Mumbai and Pune at per http://bit.ly/ewif_youth1 and some misgivings in the recent past between youngsters and us at EWIF and my personal involvement.
To help is an onerous task. To run the activities without external funding (Govt. etc.) and mere reliance on our own family finances makes it even more difficult. After 12 years of studying & engaging with NER persons / youth and their needs and a sincere and committed desire & efforts to help those who engage with us, we find that getting mindsets and behavioural patterns to reconcile is a huge challenge. It is essential to build trust & confidence between the regions of the North East and the West and transparency and adherence to truthful conduct is essential. Youngsters all around may be mischievous and playful and want ample freedom away from home, but they have to recognise that we at EWIF and myself too, since we stretch our necks out for you, we expect reciprocity, mutual respect and discipline. Let not personal mis-adventures disrupt the stabilization of working arrangements. Please do not be rude, it impresses no one.
I also urge Student Welfare Bodies to duly register themselves, meet with compliance requirements and structure their organisations so as to make it easier to receive financial and other assistance. Furthermore, reach out and mingle with Western Region people and organisations. This will go a long way. Let the North East and West truly interconnect. Rise above petty differences which will dissolve over time.
I humbly urge the youth from the North East in the Western Region to be good ambassadors to the NE region. This will go a long way for you individually and collectively. We are trying to help you. If you let us down you will be letting yourselves down. Each unfortunate incident makes the going tough for cases to follow.
Please think about this. We at EWIF are trying our best. Please cooperate.
Yours sincerely,
Rajiv Bhatia
