Recent initiatives taken by Sansani
• Sansani recently disclosed a mysterious temple in Faridabad where SIX children left there house a year back to establish themselves in the temple. Lot of persuasion from the family members did not change their decision to come back however when Sansani's team intervened they managed to get two children back home.
• Rampal the victim of human trafficking was trapped in Kuwait past 6 months. He knocked on the doors of Sansani through the help line number and pleaded for help. Sansani team responded by organizing a persistent campaign against the perpetrators who were playing with lives of unemployed youths and forced them to relieve Rampal who is now a free man and is back in India. Rampal is one among many people who was rescued by the Sansani team other cases that the team has already solved are individuals who were trapped in Belgium and Egypt.
• Another case that evoked a lot of response not only among people but also in the media was that of Ranchi Inspector General of Police (IG) PS Natrajan, who instead of helping the victim was in fact exploiting her sexually. The team exposed him with the help of the victim through a hidden camera.
• Sansani in its pursuit to make the society more liveable launched different campaigns against lawbreakers. Be it Tantriks, corrupt officials, thugs, or human traffickers, the team has always tried to prevent crimes or at least make the culprits nabbed by the police. Sansani's persistent campaign against self-acclaimed healers provided a lot of reprieve to hundreds of victims Noted among these tantriks was Jabbar Singh from Pali, Rajasthan, who used to convene his own durbar. It was Sansani's campaign against him that led to the registration of case against him by the police.
