In India, programmes of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN) span the states of Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Bihar and address a broad spectrum of development issues ranging from cultural revitalisation to education quality, health care to the development of rural areas.
When it was established by His Highness the Aga Khan in 1984, the Aga Khan Rural Support Programme in India (AKRSP) started field operations in the state of Gujarat. Since then, AKRSP has reached over 500,000 beneficiaries in over 1100 villages in the states of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar. Over 4,000 village organisations have been created.
