India is facing several problems just like any other nation. Some of them are the legacies of our eventful past while others are emerging due to fusion of traditional Indian culture with modern way of life. This is further compounded by the fact that though India is a single country, the diversity across its land is phenomenal in terms of race, religion, caste and language. While this diversity poses a huge challenge to the governing institutions, it also enables different groups of people spread across the length and breadth of the country to seek and implement their own solutions without waiting for the government’s efforts to commence.

Our event seeks to invite such initiators to share their real life success stories with a wide audience. Like everyone else, they were faced with a multitude of challenges. However, instead of allowing those challenges to stall them forever, they exhibited extraordinary resilience and moved on to create better opportunities not only for themselves but also for others. Such stories will inspire the listeners to successfully deal with their own challenges by displaying strong resilience and ultimately emerge victorious in their life.

Another perspective is taking "undo" not in the individualistic sense, but as a means to undo what is happening in the world around us by actions, focusing not just on the formulation of innovative ideas, but on the successful implementation of the ideas as well. Whatever the human kind has done till now has brought this planet to impending war among nations and widespread poverty which kills millions around the world every year. We wish to see how in our own small way, we can help in spreading these successful ideas across the country and put India into the comity of developed nations.
