About NMDC
NMDC owes its genesis to the vision of independent India's founding
fathers who believed that true and meaningful independence was possible
only with economic self-sufficiency. Thus came into existence a few
PSEs which provided seminal seeds for the foundation of a great nation.
NMDC was established on 15th November 1958 as a Public Sector
Undertaking to explore, develop and exploit mineral resources other than
fuel oil and atomic minerals. It is engaged in mining of Iron ore, Magnesite
and Diamonds. NMDC is India's single largest iron ore producer, presently
producing over 30 million tonnes of iron ore from 3 fully mechanized
mines in Chhattisgarh and Karnataka State.
In acknowledgement of its substantial contribution to the domestic
mineral sector during the last five decades it has been accorded the status
of a Schedule-A public sector company. In recognition of the company's
consistent performance, the Company was also categorized as a Navratna
Public Sector Enterprise in 2008.
The company is diversifying into steel making and has undertaken several
capital intensive projects to modernize and increase capacities to retain
its domestic leadership and has also forayed overseas successfully.
A band of over 5500 dedicated employees make NMDC what it is - a
world class mining organization. These are professionals who delve into
the bowels of the earth to bring her riches before the world. NMDC is
proud of its work culture and the positive attitude of its employees who
have earned several laurels for the company and continue to work
ceaselessly to take it ever forward.

Mining... and Melting Hearts
Due to NMDC’s avowed stand that the first beneficiary of its success
ought to be the community in whose midst it undertakes its mining
activity, Corporate Social Responsibility has been a way of life at NMDC,
ingrained in its very DNA, and one which it has been consistently carrying
out diligently in letter and spirit since its inception. This approach ensures
that NMDC becomes a good support in their lives - from helping them
in their income generation efforts, to providing basic amenities and going
beyond to providing them quality education and helping them to realize
their aspirations.
NMDC’s CSR seeks to contribute in healthcare, sanitation, drinking water,
infrastructure development and employable skill development, education.
These initiatives are taken up in consultation with a wide spectrum of
stakeholders, including local people and the local administration. The
beneficiaries are mostly the tribal communities in the proximity of
NMDC’s mines, which are in remote areas.
To cite just one instance, today tribal girls from Bastar have qualified as
professional nurses having received training at Apollo Institute of Nursing
at Hyderabad. Our experience has shown that people are aspiring to
bring about a transformation in their lives; all they need is a helping
hand. NMDC is viewed by them as an entity that adds value to the
community it operates in.
NMDC’s approach has been successful because it takes all stakeholders
on board and in consultation with them chalks out its CSR programmes.
The active involvement of the village community and panchayat and the
government bodies at various levels ensures that the CSR fund is well
utilized. Not surprisingly, the Department of Public Enterprises holds
up NMDC’s model of stakeholder consultation as worthy of emulation
by other PSEs. NMDC complements the state administration’s efforts
towards development, making it a winning proposition for the local
population.
But, more than anything what matters most to us is the smile on
the face of a healthy villager in a school and the glint of determination
in the eyes.

Literacy & Education
Recognizing that education is an integral component for human
development, NMDC has been contributing in different ways to
improve not only the literacy levels, but also the quality of education
in the areas of its operations.
In this endeavor, the focus is constantly on improving educational
infrastructure and providing necessary facilities for students with a view
to provide conducive environment to continue studies and enhance
overall learning.

Shiksha Sahayog Yojana
Shiksha Sahayog Yojana is a one of its kind initiative in the Country,
which NMDC has been implementing since 2008-09, wherein upto
18,000 SC/ST students who are natives of the Bastar Division (which
is presently divided into seven Districts) in Chhattisgarh State and
residents of 8 peripheral villages around Donimalai Project in Bellary
District, Karnataka State and whose family income is less than
Rs.6,000/- per month are provided educational scholarships per annum.
This initiative was introduced in the backdrop of a high dropout rate
among Students hailing from the local tribal communities, despite the
efforts of the Government's Sarva Shiksha Abhiyaan. This was primarily
due to the inadequate educational facilities for Students near their
immediate neighbourhood, which discouraged Students from continuing
their education beyond 8th class and parents also had no incentive to
send a helping hand, who was supplementing their efforts in agriculture
or other avocations.
NMDC has adopted the process of direct crediting of Scholarships into
the Bank/Post Office accounts of the beneficiary Students. It would not
be out of place to mention that this was a pioneering practice introduced
by NMDC's CSR Programme way back in 2009-10.
The scheme has been enriched with innovative activities like debate
competitions, sports events, study tours, science exhibitions etc. to give
opportunity for overall personality development of the students.
Study conducted by NMDC shows that the scheme has encouraged
students to continue their studies. The scheme has also helped
in improving attendance in schools and ensured better results.

Balika Shiksha Yojana
Balika Shiksha Yojana is a
novel CSR initiative having
a triple purpose of assisting
girls from socio-
economically disadvantage
sections of society to pursue
professional education,
contribute to empowerment
of women and also help in addressing the situation of acute shortage
of Medical & Paramedical Staff in Bastar Division. This program was
initiated by NMDC in the year 2011-12. Initially, 25 girl students from
socio-economically disadvantaged background were sponsored by NMDC
for B. Sc (Nursing) and GNM Courses at Apollo Institute of Nursing
at Hyderabad, the education arm of Apollo Hospitals. The success of
the program led to the enhancement of the number of students sponsored
from 25 to 40. As on date 32 students are being sponsored for the
3 year GNM course and 08 students are being sponsored for the four
year long B.Sc Nursing program. Till date 298 students have been
sponsored under the scheme.
This scheme has been framed directly in response to the needs of the
Communities surrounding NMDC Projects. The need was assessed based
on interaction with the local District Administrations who had voiced
their concerns about lack of adequate trained Nursing Professionals in
the local Hospitals/Public Health Centres, where only 33% of the
requisite Nursing Staff was available to render medical services to the
local communities. Added to this was the concern about the inability
of local Tribal girls to pursue the professional courses in Nursing, etc.
due to socio-economic constraints.
All the students of the first two batches who have passed out have been
gainfully employed.

�
Mid Day Meal Programme
Mid day meal is a unique programme of the Govt. of India which aims
at addressing the dual problem of malnutrition as well as the issue of
absenteeism and drop out among school children.
NMDC has been supporting the mid day meal programme in surrounding
areas of the Donimalai Project in Karnataka in partnership with Akshaya
Patra Foundation since 2008-09 by providing monetary support to the
mid day meal scheme to provide nutritious and wholesome meal during
the school hours which includes items like chapatti, eggs etc. in the
menu and has also contributed two dedicated vehicles for meal
distribution.
As many as 8,000 school
children in 38 schools of
Sandur taluk in Bellary
dist. in a radious of 25 km
from NMDC operations
are getting benefitted from
the scheme.
10
�
Education Improvement Program (EIP)
It was observed that in the rural areas of Bastar region, the dropout rate
in primary schools was as high as 50%. At the same time the learning
levels of a 5th std student was equal to grade specific learning expected
of 1st std student. In order to address this, NMDC initiated a project
called "Education Improvement Programme". The objective was to
reduce the dropout rate and improve the education standard. It also
aimed at bringing back the drop out students back to schools by
involving the local community.
In order to achieve these objectives, the program operated academic
centers to ensure quality learning. Similarly, creative learning centres
were operated for out of school children. The program covered 84 Govt.
primary schools in Dantewada Block, Dantewada Dist.
4367 children benefitted out of which 2027 were girl students.
Improvement in Grade specific learning was also recorded apart from
reduction in dropout.

�
Residential School at Nagarnar, Bastar, Chhattisgarh
Remote village locations, tough
geographic terrain and various socio
economic reasons often prove to be
a hindrance for acquiring education.
As a result, many children from
remote and backward villages of
Bastar Division do not get chance to
study.
In order to address this issue and provide local tribal children in Bastar
region with a conducive learning environment, NMDC established a
residential school at Nagarnar in year 2010-11.
Teams of NMDC employees, both male and female visit remote hamlets
in the left wing extremism affected villages of Bastar Division and
counsel the parents of children of school going age, convincing them
to send their children to school. Consequently, most of the students
who were admitted in the school were 1st generation school goers from
their families from the deep jungle hamlets.
NMDC has engaged the services of DAV Institution for operation of
the school. At present the school strength is 568 students up to
class XII. The initiative has created a positive impact in the area and
admission to the school has become very much sought after amongst
the local community.

Technical Education
Bastar region in Chhattisgarh has traditionally lagged in having
professional institutes which provide job oriented technical skills to the
local youth. This is one of the main reasons that many local youth find
it hard to gain meaningful employment in the job market.
At the same time, it is difficult for the organizations working in the
region to get technically trained personnel at the local level. In order
to fill this void, NMDC has been working to establish technical
institutes in the region which aim at imparting job oriented technical
education to the local youth. The objective is to create trained workforce
at the local level which is equipped with sound knowledge as well as
practical exposure on specific trades which are commonly in demand.
Polytechnic College at Dantewada, South Bastar
Continuing with its efforts to provide technical education to the local
youth, NMDC has established a Polytechnic College at Dantewada in
year 2010-11 within the premises of Education Hub.
Plans are afoot to initiate new
trades in the institute, which
currently has an intake of 126
students per year in
Mechanical and Electrical
Streams.
The college has been granted
exemption from central
counselling to encourage
professional technical education among students from Dantewada
District/ Bastar Division.
The only 'Polytechnic College' in Chhattisgarh which is totally
operated by a PSU without any financial contribution from the
State Govt. of Chhattisgarh.

ITI at Bhansi, South Bastar Dantewada District
An ITI was established in Bhansi in the year 1999-2000. The courses
offered in the institute are Welder & Fitter, Diesel Mechanic, Electrician
& Motor Vehicle Mechanic. The total annual intake is 76 students.
Tribal students requiring monetary support are also provided a monthly
Scholarship. The institute has been able to bring trade level Technical
Education at the door-step of Dantewada District thereby helping
interested students from the district to pursue formal technical
education.
ITI Bhansi has been ranked as Ist amongst all the ITIs in the State of
Chhattisgarh.
ITI at Nagarnar, Bastar District, Chhattisgarh
Another ITI has been established at Nagarnar by NMDC in 2010-11 to
further extend the facility of gaining technical education especially for
the local tribal youth in the Nagarnar region. The institute has
commenced operations initially with courses on welder and mason trades
with an annual intake of 28 students. The institute also aims to impart
employable skills to all the eligible wards of land losers of NISP Project
for eventual absorption in NMDC apart from other local youth.
These are the only two ITI's being run in Chhattisgarh which
is totally established and operated by a PSU without any financial
contribution from the State Govt.

Education City
Factors like geographic terrain coupled
with prevailing law and order situation
have seriously hampered the chances of
local children to get quality professional
and technical education over the years.
In wake of this reali ty, Govt. of
Chhattisgarh came up with a solution for
establishing an Education City at Geedam, Dantewada Dist with
institutions ranging from Primary school to professional institutions like
polytechnics in a single campus. The objective was to provide conducive
environment to the local children for overall intellectual and physical
development by providing them with quality educational facilities.
NMDC has partnered actively with the State Govt. in this unique
initiative and is supporting it in several ways.
Some of the initiatives supported
by NMDC in Education City are as

Healthcare & Hygiene
20

A large section of population does not have access to reliable health
services in large parts of India. Realizing the fact that our projects are
located in remote and backward areas, NMDC has taken encouraging
steps in providing reliable health services to such areas. The healthcare
initiatives undertaken are a unique mix of preventive as well as curative
healthcare and include community awareness and mobilization
activities on issues related to personal hygiene, safe sanitation and
cleanliness practices.
Key Highlights
� Providing Free medi-care services at Project Hospitals.

hospitals at i ts
mines, out of
which two are in
collaboration with
M/s Apollo and
one with M/s
Yashoda Hospitals
offering free
medical treatment
not only to staff
but to the local communities as well. On an average about
1,00,000 out-patients and 10,000 in-patients per annum are
provided free treatment at these hospitals, which includes nutritious diet
for in-patients. These Project Hospitals have proved to be of immense
benefit for the local communities who earlier had no hospitals nearby.
The low levels of Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) & Maternal Mortality
Rate (MMR) of Dantewada District when compared to most other
districts in Chhattisgarh, are a testimony to the fact that the local
populace is immensely benefitting by the health care services provided
by NMDC.

and lack of development, NMDC took an initiative in 2009 to bring
a change in the overall profile of these village by taking up varied and
multi dimensional developmental initiatives.
Together these initiatives have been termed as Integrated Village
Development. The idea behind IVD is to transform these villages into
model villages through a host of developmental activities.
The canvas of developmental work undertaken in these villages range
from healthcare, education, infrastructure development to income
enhancement by promoting agriculture and non agriculture based
livelihood opportunities.
Key Highlights

the IVD component. These are especially aimed at covering
women and youth from the local community. Trainings are
organized on trades which have the potential to provide
