Legislative Work

Bridging the Gap Between Grassroots Reality and Legislative Action.

Established in 1997, Samarthan acts as a vital bridge between marginalized communities, policymakers, and the state administration. Inspired by the ideals of Sane Guruji, S.M. Joshi, and Barrister Nath Pai, the organization was founded by Vivek Pandit (Bhau) with Sadanand Varde (Anu Kaka) serving as the founding President. We analyze government policies and state budgets to ensure the voices of Dalits, Adivasis, women, children, and unorganized workers are reflected in Maharashtra's legislative decisions.
