About Dehaati Gramothan Vikas Samiti (DGVS):

Dehaati Gramothan Vikas Samiti (DGVS) is a leading voluntary organization in UP registered under SRA 1860 and successfully launched on 13th August 1986. DGVS has been working with the existing government system, community groups and stakeholders for more than three and half decades on issues confronting the most disadvantage and marginalized section of the society. On the basis of its learning the society is in a continuous process of evolving strategy which is contextually relevant, sustainable, replicable and achievable. DGVS has been succeeded in developing linkages between various projects and working in an integrated manner towards achieving the desired results. Since last 37 years the organization has implemented a number of projects of various nature, such as Women Empowerment, Education, Minority & Tribal, Reproductive Child Health, Water and Sanitation, Ravine Stabilization, Beggary, Old Aged, Water Recharging, Environment, Forest & Bio-Diversity, Road Safety and Drivers Training, Advancement of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry, Nutrition, Rural Development & Poverty Alleviation, Dairy, Community Mobilization, Transgender, Drug Addiction, SHGs, Micro-credit, Art & Culture, and Vocational & Skill Trainings for Youths. DGVS primarily focuses on Children Education, Women Empowerment and Socio economic upliftment of the Poor’s in the community Health and environment. We have now started intervening in the Panchayats, as all the developmental plans are now being initiated and implemented by the Gram Panchayats. Cross-cutting strategies to improve the health and nutrition status of the poorest and marginalised communities has remained a crucial area of work this year.


The spotlight has continued to be on quality healthcare, nutrition, water and sanitation services to reduce maternal and child mortality. Improvement of maternal and child health, elimination of diseases, family planning and up-gradation of health determinants have been prioritized. Through our work, we have seen an enhancement in the participation of rural communities, especially among the women of Self Help Groups, in public health management through the Village Health Sanitation and Nutrition Committees. DGVS is known for its transparency. I think it’s safe to say that the way our programs function, and the way we work as an organization has a lot of clarity and transparency. 

Nothing is hidden. It’s all out there, in the public domain — for everyone to see,” says Mr. Pradeep K. Misra, Secretary, DGVS. DGVS has always worked to accurately account for and report the financial position of the Society, to promote sound financial management, and to provide quality services to the donors. The centralized finance function is performed from the Head Office and serves the needs of all the offices across the States. It ensures that all transactions adhere to the Society’s policies and procedures, generally accepted accounting principles, and rules established by the statutory bodies. DGVS values a culture of accountability and integrity committed to doing the right thing.
