WHAT IS SANDHAN?

Sandhan is a CSR Initiative of Vision IAS, in collaboration with Aanya Foundation.

Through this project, we strive to reach different areas of the country to search and identify talented minds, especially those who are currently not able to reach the big cities and institutions of excellence due to the lack of resources or other socio-economic constraints.

We will be providing these candidates with training, individual attention and one-to-one mentorship for UPSC and other competitive examination preparation.
