PaaLoNaa is a social awareness drive run by Ashrayani Foundation and is trying very hard to bring the un-noticed crime of murder of unwanted newborns (Infanticide) into notice.

The drive has been collection data on abandoned infants and cases of infanticide since January, 2015. Simultaneously since 2015 Team PaaLoNaa has been deeply engaged in filing RTI (Under Right to Information Act, 2005) from the various government agencies

and departments.

Social factors have been contributing to the rise of cases of infanticide in India. So, Team PaaLoNaa has been raising awareness through social media since July 2016 via Twitter and Facebook by updating the masses on daily occurrences of cases of abandonment and Infanticide.

In most cases, these abandoned infants die even before any possible help could even reach them. Nature of killing clearly proves it to be a cold-blooded murder. To raise awareness in the society Ashrayani Foundation has till date organized 4 massive Art & Photo Exhibitions along with Nukkad Nataks. Over dozens of meetings with government bodies were organized to help raise awareness among the them. PaaLoNaa is striving to bring cases of infanticide to the notice of the society and authorities because ignorance is a bliss
