I am really happy that our company is conducting CIM projects for the development children’s education. It is good social service program. We are not giving money to any one but material supplied based on requirement of students, thus eradicating the chances misuse. This program is motivating in more than one way, when we entered in Begumpeta they are very happy to see us and thanked S&P Captial IQ for this project. All the students, teachers, Sarpanch, MEO, and others attended appreciated our project. They are very poor students and we played a small role in helping them and inspiring them.
