The response of the students at various places like at VK college at Panvel, Zunzunwala college at Ghatkopar, Chikitsak Highschool Jr. college at Girgaon was overwhelming.

Principal Mhatre of V K college at Panvel, Principal Dr.mrs.Mukundan of Zunzunwala college at Ghatkopar (Mumbai) & Principal Mrs.Prabhu of Chikitsak Highschool, Girgaon & their respective staff members, were all full of appreciation of what "Vighnaharta Pratishthan" is doing. Dr.Mukundan traced the exact need of the society as she said,"There is no need to create panic & light up candles everywhere. Instead, the society has to be trained in Self & Community Defense. There should be volunteers with right & positive attitude who will carry out Help & rescue missions." Mrs.Prabhu of Chikitsak Highschool also had expressed similar views.
Also, Vighnaharta Pratishthan had called for mass Blood Donation drives on 26/11.
