People Forum of India Announces Major National-Level Restructuring; Dr. Bhargav Mallappa Appointed In-Charge of Headquarters Administration
New Delhi : The People Forum of India, an affiliate of the National Bharat Sevak Samaj — a public service body legislated by Parliament in 1952 and established under the guidance of former President of India, His Excellency Gulzarilal Nanda Ji — announced a major administrative restructuring during a press meet held today.
Addressing the media, Dr. S. Manimozhyaan, National Chairman of the People Forum of India, said, “It is an honour to meet one of the strongest pillars of Indian democracy – the media. On behalf of our organization, I thank you for attending and supporting our vision for a restructured and revitalized People Forum of India.”
With over 30 years of service in the organization, Dr. Manimozhyaan has held key positions, including State General Secretary and National Vice Chairman, before being appointed as National Chairman. He emphasized that under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, who refers to himself as a “Servant of the People,” the spirit of public service has gained renewed recognition and respect.
Complete Dissolution of Administrative Structure
To streamline operations and improve efficiency, the People Forum of India has dissolved its entire national and state administrative structure effective July 11, 2025. This move aims to ensure that welfare schemes reach citizens more effectively, and a new administrative setup will be introduced in three phases:
1. Phase 1: Appointment of National-level office bearers and State Chairpersons
2. Phase 2: Appointment of State office bearers and District Presidents
3. Phase 3: Appointment of District and Taluk-level office bearers
All previous ID cards are now void. Only newly appointed officials will receive secure ID cards embedded with barcodes and certificates of appointment.
