This Japanese Technology was introduced by Samajik Seva Sadan in the year 1988 with the patron-ship of Mr. S. B. Agnihotri (IAS), the Collector & District Magistrate of Dhenkanal. With his kind efforts we could get a project from CAPART for propagating this technology throughout Odisha.

We designed various types of roofing panels, water tanks of different designs and capacities, doors and windows and trained 108 Ferro Cement Masons and 15 Junior Engineers of different Govt. and NGO sector. We assisted in making Ferro-Cement manufacturing units at Sarsokana Block in Mayurbhanj, ITDA, Kaptipada, Sarsokana Block and CDA, Bidanasi in Cuttack. NGOs such as Gram Vikas, SAMBHAB, AGRAGAMEE, JAGRUTI and PREM established their own manufacturing units after their Masons and Engineers were trained at Samajik Seva Sadan.

Central Institute for Fresh-water Aquaculture (CIFA) near Uttara Chhak, Bhubaneswar came to know about our innovations of Ferro-Cement Water Tanks invited us for a demonstration. Today more than 200 Ferro-Cement Water Tanks of various design and capacities up to 5000 liters can be seen used by them for Hatchery, Perl-culture and for various experiments

Several years of our interaction with the people of Subdega in Sundargarh District we have realized due to lack of skills thousands of Adivasi and Dalit Youth desert their homes and go to different cities for yearning a living as farm labourers, construction workers, helping hand in chemical industries and to Goa for fishing. It was the earnest request by our target people that we open an Industrial Training Institute to skill the youth so that they can stay at or nearer to their home and engage themselves as a skilled workers. More over many Industries are being set up in Sundargarh and nearby District. There is ample opportunity of job for the skilled people. There are many ITCs in Sundargarh District, but due to the high fees and donation our poor Adivasi and Dalit children cannot get an opportunity to get themselves skilled. Thus we have ventured to open an Industrial Training Centre named Gangpur Industrial Training Centre (GITC) at Subdega, Sundargarh in the year 2010.
