About 50 years ago, a small number of people migrated to Indore and formed a community titled “Mar Thoma Parish, Indore”. In the year 1978 the members initiated a social project at Kshipra, Dewas with an intention of educating, equipping and emancipating the poor masses of the neighboring villages. The project was later handed over to the Christian Agency for Rural Development, an auxiliary of the Mar Thoma Church.
