MUMBAI (India CSR): It has been 10 years since Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) was mandated in India, marking a significant milestone in the corporate world’s commitment to giving back to society. Over the past decade, CSR has become an integral part of corporate strategy and functioning, fostering social change and development across the nation.
In an event, Maharashtra Governor Ramesh Bais said, “We need to move from CSR to ISR – Individual Social Responsibility. Many of the public enterprises and corporations present today are already engaged in various CSR activities. I also know that many organizations are spending much more than the mandatory 2% on CSR. There are also companies that, despite not making a significant profit, are dedicating a portion of their earnings to social work.”
Kailash Satyarthi, in his address, emphasized the importance of CSR in transforming lives, stating, “Every smile counts. CSR is not just about charity, it’s about justice. It’s about recognizing the dignity and rights of every individual and working towards a world where no child is deprived of education, no family is denied healthcare, and no community is left behind.”
An event focused on 10 years of CSR in India , was recently held at Raj Bhavan, Mumbai.
