Advancing capability equality and enabling a more participatory India through digital inclusion, livelihoods, health and education
National, September 21, 2026: As digital infrastructure continues to connect millions, true progress lies in creating capability equality, ensuring that every individual, irrespective of geography, gender or socio-economic background, has access to the opportunities, skills and resources needed to participate meaningfully in India’s growth story. Indus Towers Limited, through its flagship CSR programmes, Saksham and Pragati, is contributing to this vision, positively impacting 33.88 million lives in FY26 and taking its cumulative reach to 90 million lives across India.
At the heart of Indus Towers’ social impact approach lies a commitment to empower communities with digital skills, education, healthcare access, livelihood opportunities and sustainable infrastructure. The Company’s interventions are designed to support the vision of a participatory India, where development is driven not only for communities but with communities. The aim is to work closely with local stakeholders, government institutions, implementation partners and beneficiary groups to identify needs, create solutions and build long-term community ownership.
Speaking on the Company’s CSR initiatives, Mr. Prachur Sah, MD & CEO, Indus Towers Limited, said, “India’s development journey will be truly transformative only when growth becomes inclusive and participatory.
