Community Development

No effort to restore Braj Heritage can succeed without involving the local community. Realizing this need our team

The Braj Foundation team approached me some years back for the restoration of heritage sites in Braj region. I was impressed with their in-depth detailed study of Braj. They have a team of qualified engineers and professionals. They methodically plan each project with minute details and execute them with high quality of efficiency. What is more important that they utilize funds without any leakage. I will continue to support them.

Shri Akhilesh Yadav - Chief Minister of UP (11th March 2015)
I recently saw some of the projects done by The Braj Foundation. Its a revelation and inspiring to see not only the efforts but also the results that have come about after such strenuous challenges because the work they are doing is historic.
