Dr APJ Abdul KalamFormer President of India
"Education is a strong means to empowerment and Ekal Abhiyan Trust is working in remote areas, so that children from tribal families get the opportunity to study. The role in furthering women empowerment is laudatory. Congratulations to them for the Gandhi Peace Prize, 2017."
"Many of its initiatives benefit tribal communities; all of its initiatives are a tribute to Mahatma Gandhi and his vision."
"I went for a Vanyatra in the Gumla village of Jharkhand initially as a donor. I was so impressed with the work FTS is doing, my association became deeper — I also served as National President and now as a Patron."
