National Communal Harmony Award 2012


The Foundation for
Amity & National
Solidarity, Delhi has
been selected for the
National Communal
Harmony Award for
the year 2012 by the
Jury headed by the
Vice-President of
India.
Formed in 1984, the
Foundation for Amity
& National Solidarity
(FANS) is a Delhi
based Trust which
works for spreading
amity and communal
harmony. It has
organized numerous
seminars, workshops,
symposiums, inter-
religious meets, youth
camps, sadbhavana
sabhas and rallies to
promote social amity.
The Foundation has
instituted 'National
Amity Award', which
is given every year to
an eminent
personality. A serial
'Yeh Gulistan Hamara'
produced by the
Foundation on
national integration
was telecast on
Doordarshan. It has
awarded numerous
scholarships under its
Amity Scholarship
Scheme to promote
education amongst
the economically
backward students. It
has extensively
contributed for
promoting solidarity
and communal
harmony.
The National
Communal Harmony
Awards were
instituted in 1996 by
the National
Foundation for
Communal Harmony
(NFCH), an
autonomous
organization set up by
the Government of
India, Ministry of
Home Affairs, for
promoting communal
harmony and national
integration. The ward
has been instituted
with a view to
demonstrating due
appreciation and
recognition of the
efforts of individuals
and organisations for
promotion of
communal harmony
and national
integration in a
sustained manner
over a sufficiently
long period of time.
In addition to a
citation, the award
carries a cash prize of
Rupees five lakh for
the Organisation.
