Shri Prasana Prabhu, Chairman of the Art of Living’s Sri Sri Rural Development Programme Trust, met Smt Anu Garg, Chief Secretary of Odisha, for an encouraging and in depth discussion on sustainable development priorities for the state.
The interaction focused on advancing Natural Farming practices to strengthen farmer livelihoods, implementing effective water pollution mitigation strategies to protect rivers and water bodies, and addressing soil and waste management through nature aligned and scalable solutions. The discussion reflected a shared understanding that ecological health, agricultural sustainability and community wellbeing are closely interconnected.
Such engagements help build collaborative pathways between institutions and governance, enabling practical, people-centric solutions that support environmental balance and long-term development across Odisha. AOL-SSRDP continues to work with state partners to create a lasting impact at the grassroots.
