Socialist Party (India)

All are invited to join this course being organized by the Socialist Party of India as a part of their Outreach and Capacity Building/Nation Building initiatives for Social Transformation and Education of Communities, with a special focus on the Youth and those entering the Electorate. Socialism has always believed in inclusive and informed decision-making with equity. This course is a primer on socialism and the democratic values that drive it, as they have evolved with an open environment to learn and transform as we enter a new age. The course has been kept free; however, you are welcome to donate as you wish to both the key stakeholders in Hyderabad, Lamakaan, the venue partner.
