ARISE · Statutory & legal
The legal position, without varnish.
Who contracts, who is liable, where the money sits, and what is still being settled with counsel. A movement that asks people to trust it with their children and their time owes them this page — including the parts that are not finished.
ARISE is a movement of the Rebuild India Foundation.
Everything on this site — every club, every Nurture Centre, every partnership, every rupee — is the Foundation’s. ARISE is how the Foundation does this work and what the work is called.
What ARISE is
A movement of the Rebuild India Foundation, governed by a written charter, constitution, bye-laws, policies and manuals. The Foundation is the contracting party for everything, and the executing party to every agreement made in the movement’s name.
What ARISE is not
Not yet a separately registered entity. There is no ARISE company, society or trust. Until a separate entity is constituted, the Foundation’s Board is the Council and the Foundation’s ARISE office is the Centre. A national leadership elected by the movement itself comes into being when there are enough clubs to need one; the first club boards take office on 1 July 2027. Who decides what
A club is never a principal. A club is named as the operator of its Nurture Centre. The Foundation is the sole party to every centre-hosting agreement and the sole holder of every liability arising under it. No college, no Faculty Advisor, no office-bearer and no associate carries that liability.

This is the address on every agreement, every receipt and every formal communication of the movement. Post addressed to a named role-holder — the Data Protection Contact, the Grievance Officer, the Designated Safeguarding Officer — reaches them here.
The Foundation’s registration numbers and other statutory particulars are being located and entered in the records of the Centre, and this is to be done before any agreement is executed in the name of the movement. They are not printed here because they are not yet entered, and we will not print a number we cannot stand behind.
One custody, receipted and audited.
The simplest protection against the thing that goes wrong in student organisations is to let no student organisation hold money. That is the rule here, and it has no exceptions.
Clubs hold nothing
A club holds and spends no money at all. There is no club account, no club float, no cash box and no collection.
Central custody
Every rupee sits in the central custody of the Rebuild India Foundation, is receipted, and is accounted for in books that are audited.
The fee is nil
The membership fee is nil by rule, permanently. Children never pay. Families never pay. Partners never pay. The one carve-out is that celebrations are self-paid.
Who bears the cost of a centre, and what charitable money may fund
The Foundation bears all the costs of a Nurture Centre — premises where a premises is not lent free, teaching and activity materials, utilities, the safety and first-aid provision, and the monthly community initiative — funded by its donors, sponsors and supporters.
Charitable money is applied to the building and sustaining of institutions and to the Nurture Centres of the movement and their activities. Giving is open, and an offer of funds is received and receipted rather than parked.
Neither a child, a family, an associate, a Centre Host Partner nor a Club Host Partner college pays anything, and no associate funds a centre out of pocket.
Where a rupee value is not fixed by the movement’s own constitution, it is set centrally and published. This site prints no amount it has not been given.
On tax. This site makes no claim about tax deductibility of any kind. The Foundation’s registration particulars are still being located and entered, and until that is complete nothing about the tax treatment of a gift is asserted here. Where a PAN is asked for on a giving form, it is used for the receipt. How giving works
The legal items under counsel.
These are the standing legal items of the movement. Each one stands in front of a live activity — nothing behind it proceeds until that item is closed — and each is with counsel now. We publish them because a reader deserves to know what is settled and what is not.
State coaching-centre legislation
How state legislation on coaching centres applies to a free evening learning centre. An enrolment bar below sixteen would be existential for a classes 6 to 10 programme, so the question is settled before, not after.
Insurance cover
Public liability for the activity and the premises · professional indemnity · trustee indemnity for those who carry the Foundation’s duties. Cover is placed before the estate of centres grows.
The assessment instruments
The characterisation of the four adult Vyakti Darpan instruments against the sensitive-personal-data rules in force today — because they may be shared with an employer, and that sharing must be lawful in form as well as consented in fact. What is shared, and how
The Professional Conduct Register
Defamation exposure, which attaches to office-bearers personally, and competition law on coordinated exclusion. The register is written and bounded, and counsel is taken before it operates. How conduct is governed
What has to be signed and in place before anything happens
No memorandum is executed until qualified counsel has reviewed and adapted its terms for the partner and the jurisdiction. Any draft ahead of that carries a “draft, not for execution” banner and is agreed in principle only.
A centre opens only when the centre-hosting agreement and its campus annexure are executed for that site, the four parental consent forms and the child-facing contact card are in the parents’ hands, the incident register and the safety audit checklist are in place, and the Centre Mentor holds a written appointment from the Foundation.
A college is onboarded on a signed memorandum of understanding. A candidate reaches a company only on a signed Earn Partner agreement and data-sharing agreement, with the attribute validation report and the candidate feedback in prescribed form.
Every partnership is recorded in writing on twelve standard headings — parties and purpose · term · non-exclusivity · commitments · central custody · brand use · youth protection · data and privacy · the terms special to the category · confidentiality · termination · dispute resolution and governing law.
The excluded sectors.
No partnership of any category is entered into until the prescribed due-diligence enquiry is complete. Its seventh enquiry is a list, and the list is absolute.
How the rule operates in practice
The Centre may add further sectors, and publishes any addition before it applies.
The enquiry is re-applied on any change in a partner’s business, and entry into an excluded sector is a ground of termination in every category.
No privilege may be extended in an excluded sector, and no payment passes in either direction between the movement and a Privilege Partner.
The Foundation may decline or return a donation from an excluded sector, or from any source that fails the enquiry. The seven partner categories
