Narendra Kailash Mujhalda, a young and visionary leader, holds the esteemed position of Sarpanch in Kharjana. His comprehensive approach and dedication have paved the way for transformative changes in the Gram Panchayat.

Narendra's initial efforts were focused on enhancing the quality of education and essential facilities in schools. He achieved an impressive 90% student registration and continuous follow-up in primary and secondary schools, promoting awareness about education and filling vacant classrooms. Additionally, he initiated the distribution and consumption of Take-Home Rations (THR) to improve the services of the Anganwadi Centers.
