Inspiring a Billion Lives
with Stories of Hope,
Courage and Initiative
Anuradha Parekh has influenced millions of Indians to a be part of
the solution rather than remain part of the problem. Her initiative ‘The
Better India’ has provided access to information, awareness and hope
– empowering readers to become changemakers in their own ways.
It shares stories that have positively influenced government policies,
brought farmers out of poverty, helped urban slum schools get funded,
brought water and sanitation in villages, to name a few.
She has challenged the media landscape in the country and changed
the narrative from one of despair and demotivation to one that is
inspiring and action-oriented.
The Better India is changing mindsets
from one that considers itself part of the
problem to one that wants to be a part of
the solution.
