About Us
The art of the Almighty in creation of the would is awful. Still, some imperfections are visible sometimes. An orphan may be termed as one of these. Childhood shorn of mother's love and adolescence bereft of parents' affection is a miserable scene. The great Hindi novelist - Prem Chand has eloquently summarized that a child shorn mother is the most pitiable creature on the earth.

Every child yearns to live and progress which itself is dependent on outside help and support. The importance of support is explicated through a story in which a traveler got complete comfort amidst a dense forest during the night after seeing a stranger sleeping nearby. However, in the morning, he found that his night companion was actually dead. He could repose because of 'support' (though notional). This is even more true in case of unfortunate children with no parents. The position of a girl is obviously more vulnerable.

By dint of a little support from the society, these flowers can also blossom. They, too, can be grown up as useful, normal and responsible citizens. Possibly an individual may not be good enough to take care of this responsibility, but jointly this end is achievable by contributing a bit by each of them.

Up to the near past, people were living in joint families, and that too, living at one place for decades together. In absence of social security, on behalf of the state of fall back upon distress, joint families were like insurance cover for any calamity that might have occurred to any member. If any of the earning members died, others looked after the children of the deceased. Now, family has become a small unit consisting of husband, wife and their children. If husband (generally earner) dies, the life of the rest of the family becomes very harsh. In some cases, husband (though alive) becomes alcoholic and neglects his family. In all such cases, children particularly girls, are the first victim of the situation. If both of the parents die, the situation becomes worse.

To mitigate this bad situation, Arya Kanya Sadan was established by a socially concerned and kind hearted lady namely Mrs. Shanti Sehgal in the year 1992, initially with three girls.
