Sourashtra Munnettra Kazhagam (SMK)
There are hundreds of Organisations and Associations in our community doing lot of services. SMK is started for the following purpose:
To unite Sourashtras all over the world
To unite all Sourashtra Organizations and Associations together
To get political recognition – we are above 2 ½ % of the total population of Tamil Nadu. But we do not have any MLA or M
P and there is no one to represent the community at large. Once we unite and come together under one umbrella, we will have a say, command and recognition. You all know the union is strength. The majority of our population are weavers. They do not come under social security as they are under un-organized sector. They do not get any assistance from the Govt like Green house scheme, loans, housing plots which other categories of people get. SMK will represent them to get all the benefits and fulfil their requirements. SMK will fight to get the weavers status as agriculturist status to get loans etc. To get Most Backward Status as there are lot of poor weavers backward in education and are below poverty line This organization will co-operate with all the organization / Associations of our community and other communities to uplift our community. This organization is not against any other organization and does not intent to do parallel activities. All the Sourashtras above 18 year of age by default should become member of SMK.
