About US
Prem Niketan is a unit of Prem Charitable Trust. As an extension of our service to the society and considering the need of the hour, Prem Niketan was started in 21.11.2011. The Social Welfare Department of Tamilnadu entrusted us with 35 senior citizens in 2018, hence Prem Niketan became a home for senior citizens too.
Inception
