This programme aims to empower people living in rural areas by
giving them faster access to valuable information through effective
use of IT. Centered on the IT-enablement of villages in India, the
campaign provides agricultural information to farmers, access to
land records, e-governance and on the whole helps to increase yield
and profits for local industries.
Says Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide consultant Diwakar Shukla,
"Technology has always been a core value at ARBL. Our task
was to drive home the message that technology could drive growth
for farmers in terms of improved yield and increased revenues. This
prestigious PR award is a vindication of our belief that a well
planned CSR campaign can provide tangible benefits to the community."
