History
Tarun Bharat Sangh was founded in 1975 in Jaipur by a group of students and professors from the University of Rajasthan.[1] In 1985 the direction of the organization changed when four young members of the organization went to live in the rural area of Alwar to teach rural children and do rural development.[1] Of those four, Rajendra Singh stayed when the other three left.[1] He asked the local people what they needed most, and he found that they needed easier access to water.[1] With the villagers he organized the building of a johad, which is a traditional rainwater storage tank.[1]
