The Christening of the New Born: 4 Apr 98

The Sansthan had started off as an informal group of men and women with a noble purpose in its heart. But then a need was felt to give it a formal shape so that legal and other matters could be taken care of. Accordingly, a trust was formed with five founder trustees and registered at Allahabad on 4 Apr1998. Acupressure Research, Training and Treatment Sansthan thus formally came into existence and its founder office bearers were chosen from amongst the founder trustees. Shri Mata Prasad Khemka was unanimously chosen as the Sansthan’s founder president and Shri Jagdish Prasad Agrawal as the founder vice president. Shri Satya Prakash Goyal, a devoted and conscientious worker, became the founder general secretary. Shri Shyam Sunder Saraf and Shri Ram Bilas Chaudhary were the other founding members and trustees.
 

Amongst the first decision taken by the newly formed body was that the Sansthan would not accept any donation what so ever in cash or kind from any quarter. Funds for upkeep of the Sansthan were to be generated through training camps to be organized by the Sansthan at various places in the country and by sale of books, which the Sansthan members decided to write. It was decided to charge the trainees minimal fees for all the Sansthan’s training courses so that the same could be afforded easily by one and all. The Sansthan’s objective of providing free acupressure treatment to all irrespective of a person’s means was reiterated. The Sansthan’s founding members resolved not to accept any remuneration from the Sansthan in any form. They also pledged to forego royalty on the sale of books to be authored by them in the future.
