ONGC is playing an important role
in strengthening the fabric of society. This flagship Company
in India's corporate world has a finely tuned sense of moral
responsibility towards the community of people where it operates
and the country at large.
Local population is the one which is benefited most as a result
of the ONGC operations in the region. It generates employment
& business opportunities, which in turn improves the overall
economy of the region and the living standards of the community.
ONGC operations provide the necessary boost required for the
industrial growth of the region. The requirement of the physical
inputs for ONGC's operations results in setting of ancillary
industries and vendors network, generating a lot of economic
potential.
Oil and gas production ushers an era of growth, many core sector
industries like power, fertiliser and transport, thrive as a
natural consequence of the oil and gas availability. Apart from
this, grants-in-aid help in building schools and hospitals.
Villages are adopted and several health and community welfare
programs are organised in the area around our activities. |

Apart from benefits accruing to the
region from the primary function of the corrporation i.e. exploration
and production of hydrocarbons by way of direct and indirect
employment and fiscal contributions to the exchequer of both
State and Central Governments.ONGC has been extending full support
in the overall development of the areas around its operations
all over the country.
Since 1996-97, the execution of these programmes has been further
streamlined. Work-centre-wise allocations are made each year
and programmes are being executed under the comprehensive guidelines
issued on the subject. Major emphasis has been given for promotion
of education, health and community development and in times
of natural calamities such as floods, cyclones, earthquakes,
landslides, etc. The impact of our concerted efforts is being
felt by the community and good-will is being generated. Our
programs about health care, eye camps, helping the educational
institutions are being widely appreciated. |
