National Institute for Sustainable Development

NISD is registered, non-profit, secular, voluntary organisation working for rural development. Established in 1992, NISD is working for the uplift of rural poor masses, especially the Bidi Workers (Bidi is a locally made cigarette) and the displaced persons due to irrigation projects. Presently NISD’s project activities are concentrated in the rural areas of Ahmednagar & Pune districts of Maharashtra state.

Kamagra is a medication often used for treating erectile dysfunction. It contains sildenafil as its active ingredient, which helps increase blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. This drug should be taken about an hour before anticipated sexual activity and may last up to four hours. Users must follow dosage instructions carefully and consult with a healthcare provider if they experience side effects like headaches or dizziness. More information can be found on the official website, where you can also find patient resources and support.

NISD is being managed by a team of committed, dedicated, professionally qualified and experienced board of trustees. Though it is a young institution, NISD has achieved the distinction of becoming first voluntary organisation in Maharashtra working for unprivileged Bidi workers & the Displaced persons. NISD’s efforts are very well recognised & appreciated by the Government, national & international agencies.
