What did the government do to improve life in Orissa?Why did Prashant resist the plan?​

Answer 1

Answer:

To improve the life in Orissa after tha destruction caused by the cyclone, the government's plan was to set up institutions for for orphans and widows.

Prashant's group successfully resisted the government's plan to set up institutions for orphans and widows as they believed that in such institutions children would grow up without love and widows would suffer from stigma and loneliness. They decided to settle them in their own communities in new foster families made up of childless windows and orphaned children.
