Envisioning and equipping future Nation Builders (Children & Youth) through LAMP®‘s Character Building concepts, projects, related events & initiatives utilising Music, Art & Culture, which, combined with EDUCATION & SKILL DEVELOPMENT, will help build Responsible Citizens based on Article 51A of the Constitution of India. Through the above processes and LAMP®‘s anchor project “INDIA DREAMS 2047”, we aim to develop our future Nation Builders for an India@100.
LAMP® aims to seed transformational thoughts and facilitate our nation’s children and youth and inspire them to dream, act and excel in every sphere of life, individually and collectively. This, we believe, will finally lead India to break the entrenched cycle of poverty & inequity, developing us into a strong economic super power and leader-influencer in the comity of nations by 2047.
LAMP®‘s Nation Building Projects aim to reach out to every Indian child, youth, and through them their families across India, and to the Indian Diaspora and persons of Indian origin across the globe, through ongoing waves of initiatives over several years. The projects will cut through the urban-rural, socio-economic, geographic, cultural and other divides to unite the nation and its people. The projects will impart and kindle a spirit of patriotism and a love for this nation in the hearts of every member of our next generation, the impact of which will last a life time!
India is known for its rich cultural heritage. Music, arts and literature from all over the world have found their roots in India at some time in history or another.
To shape and build our next generation, India needs artists, musicians, writers and thinkers. Emphasising on music and art in today’s generation is vital for the development of the future of a healthy community.
Learning about the arts is as important to society as reading, writing and arithmetic. Exposure to the arts has a profound impact on individuals. We believe that it is crucial to give significance to “The Creative Arts” to build the intellectual, emotional, cultural, economic and political capital of our nation.
LAMP® focuses on building Responsible Citizenship through Nation Building Projects utilizing Music, Art & Culture based on Fundamental Duties of every Citizen of India, as detailed in Article 51A of the Constitution of India.
We plan to scale our projects, to begin with, in each of the top cities across India (including the National Capital Region and each State Capital and major cities) through a Musical Concert – an envisioning and activation event – inviting local government, community & media by reaching out to Captains of Education, Captains of Industry, Captains of Governance and so forth.

LAMP® World Cultural Centre – heightens the global understanding and comes forward to build the bonds of friendship through Music Art & Cultural. It has a vision to stimulate the senses through the appreciation of music & the arts, engage in dialogue, and encourage the intellect towards Nation Building.
