Through this model, our communities will grow in sync with the development happening around them thereby creating a balance in the system - both ecologically & economically. We call this "Inclusive Living" - simply including everyone in the process of creating and sharing progress.

We believe that our children are the future of our society and education plays a crucial role in developing the children. As an infrastructure developer MARG helps in improving educational infrastructure and amenities. Growth of a country largely depends on the standards of its social infrastructure. MARG as an infrastructure developer is aware of the fact that private sector involvement and investment is essential to supplement government's efforts. We believe in the adage "Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime". While the changing new economy has opened up job opportunities across sectors the need of the hour is training and skill development. The rural poor who have no means to learn are given training in the areas of their interest and competence . We close the loop by providing them or finding them employment across industry segments. As he says "Inclusive growth is a continuous process & social development is a part of my business plan"
