The day we began our journey towards the digitalization of Chaukalshi Vadval Samaj, we did not
expect the thunderous response we received from each of the person we meet. To be honest, every
one of them applauded our effort and lend their helping hand towards the success of this project.
We were humbled by this reaction and thank each of them for their generous contribution.
Our sincere thanks goes to Mrs. Pranita Pankaj Thakur, President of the Trust, for aligning with our
vision and allowing us the freedom to perform this social duty in a manner which we thought was
best possible way to implement. We also extend our thanks to Mr. Jayesh Raut, for his constant
support and encouragement towards fulfilment of this common goal. The two, served us religiously
and have mentored us throughout this wonderful journey.
As the saying goes 'a Captain is only half good as his team', we were very fortunate to gather a team
that had players playing for a common goal leaving behind their personal grudges, whatsoever, if
they had have experienced in their earlier episodes. On a contrary, they were delighted to step up
and come forward to serve in this historic project. Their zeal was our fuel!
A meticulous planning was required for successful implementation of this project. First and foremost
was the issue of 'Time', since we all are compressed in this fast moving world. Next, we had to cope
up with the issues of 'Technology', besides allocation of resources on 'Financial' front. However, by
selection of self-motivated individuals for each role, we managed to swim through the turbulent
waves.
In the process, we have built-up a digital team, that shall serve the various social roles, thereby
causing an overall upliftment of the community as whole. The team has a combine blend of youths
and stalwarts, males and females, thinkers and writers, techo savvy and novice, individuals’ whose
service was quintessential for this project. We count on them to hatch the eggs in future too.
Following are the people whose relentless devotion and service has brought us up to the current
position:
Mr. Shashank Patil
Shashank Patil, as we all know is a leader himself and has introduced various social
beneficial schemes for the upliftment of our community members. His vast experience and
truck-load of knowledge has benefited us in the implementation of this project. The limited
time we spent with him discussing about various aspects of the project was worthy and has
helped us expand our vision. His enthusiasm was magnetic and we were able to attract
towards him quite naturally. The management lessons we acquired in these scare moments
with him has enhanced our understanding exceptionally, beyond the boundaries of book
knowledge. We thank him for all his time and sincerely wish that we can continue to work
alongside such a huge leader for the benefit of the community people at large, through this
flagship project.
Surveyor's
It was imperative to collect data about the demographic concentration of the community. The
collected statistics would facilitate the administrators for formulation and implementation of various
policies. However, the collection of data was a big challenge. Over various brainstorming sessions,
we finally agreed to begin a survey at each of the 18 base villages and try to cover every family
staying in these villages and also those families who have moved out.
We formed the teams in each village by selecting young person for the job, thereby allowing them
an independent platform to contribute to this historic cause. And to everyone's surprise, we were
able to generate a cent percent result. Each and every person lived up to our expectation and has
delivered their duties to utmost satisfaction. The entire community shall remain gratified to them all.

Data entry personnel
The task to clog-in the data into the website was an herculean task, reason being that the survey
forms were filled up by various surveyor's with understanding of their own, and quite naturally had
some human errors and limitations. The data if not entered uniformally, would defeat the entire
purpose of the project. The required statistics would have not been generated and the policies that
it could derive would never been able to setup. Hence, the contribution of data entry team, a
dedicated couple, Mrs. Darshana & Mr. Bipin Patil, is at its pinnacle. The time they have spared for
entering the forms is Divine sacrifice and we shall remain obliged till eternity.
Writers
We are thankful for various writers who have contributed their time and energy for building up the
various sections of this site. Their effort has enriched this site. In some sections, we have referred
old magazines published by the Trust, we feel obliged to the writer's and publisher's of these
magazines too.
Bloggers
Our community is blessed with people, who have developed their skills in field of Art; writing and
poetry at its core. Thanks to the efforts of all the previous leaders who propagated the importance
of Education and successfully installed this theory in vast masses. Today, we have gems around us
who can write on subjects of interest and communicate their thoughts through quality write-ups or
poetries. We have provided them a digital platform here, from which they can publish themselves
from their current location and the Internet penetration will allow them to get reach from every
corner of the world. The stage is open to all. However, the criteria of 'Quality' and 'Originality' of
message cannot be compromised.
Mr. Rajesh Patil (Videographer)
In this website we have included the section of video blogs (Vlogs) where in we extend our
hand to all of the community members who have interest in cooking recipie's, traditional or
modern. We would shoot the process & upload it on the YouTube channel. Rajesh

technology gadgets. Also, being an avid traveller he brings with him a galore of offerings
with his vast knowledge. His contribution to this project so far has reaped huge dividends &
we shall prosper together with his expertise in the subject. So, fix your appointment with
him soon & become a part of this historic project!
Technology providers
The use of Technology was a critical factor for building up this site, which has static as well as
dynamic access of data. Post struggling initially, we were able to lock horns with Diligence Web
Technologies. Their qualified and experienced team was able to connect with us for the common
goal. The journey so far has been great and we look forward to them for future programs too.
While we have tried or are in process to utilise our resources and talents to umpteen capacities,
there are possibilities that you may have better ideas and outlook for serving the community. We
warmly welcome you with a wide smile.
The successful institutions are built upon the strong 'systems' that are driven by devoted individuals.
