Atam Pargas

Atam Pargas Social Welfare Council (ਆਤਮ ਪਰਗਾਸ ਸਮਾਜ ਭਲਾਈ ਸਭਾ) is a registered charitable, non-profit, educational and social welfare organisation with its head office in Ludhiana, Punjab. Its website says it aims to sensitise academia to develop students as “Truthful Human Beings.” Its seven stated objectives are moral values among students and the public, conservation of natural resources, less chemical use in farming, a library and reference catalogue, support for poor and needy students, health services for patients, and moral-education-based academic institutions. The site gives no founding year or history, but shows that its 17th Foundation Day was held at the head office on 16 June 2025.

Its work

• Books: it publishes moral-education and playway books, among them Sulekh Mala, Punjabi Abhiaas Pustak and Jeevey Gurbani Naal, which its site says presents Sikh ethics through visual aids. Dr Varinderpal Singh is credited as the author.
• Exhibitions on moral education, such as those listed for 18 and 19 September 2026 at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, and 19 to 22 September 2026 at Faridkot.
• Workshops and lectures, among them a leadership workshop at the university on 6 and 7 June 2026 and a personality development workshop at village Kakra, Sangrur, from 10 to 16 June 2026. It also offers a Best School Award.

Who runs it

Its board page lists Dr Inderjit Kaur, president of the All India Pingalwara Charitable Society, Amritsar, as patron, and Dr Sukhwinder Singh, Provost of Punjabi University, Patiala, as chairman.

Where it stands today

It is active on the evidence of its own site, which is the only source found for it. Larger claims made about it elsewhere, such as the size of a planned institute site or the number of families helped, are left out because no published confirmation has been found.
