The legal profession in the country is in a state of perpetual change, and attorneys face brand-new professional obstacles on a regular basis. A career as a lawyer is one of the most sought-after in India because of the high respect it garners and the lucrative income it offers. However flashy as it may look, it is a commitment to the profession where a lawyer has to put everything on the line. In India, lawyers working in private practice are held to a higher standard than their peers working in other professions. They possess the ability to mould civilizations, bring about fundamental transformations, and ascend to the highest echelons of authority. Therefore, attorneys have the capacity to alter the course of history by influencing the attitudes of influential figures in society, such as legislators, business magnates, and political leaders. Lawyers are not just limited to the courts as they serve people through even bigger projects aiming for some social cause with the help of their extensive network of super influential personalities and the ability to bring about a significant impact in society.

MME LTD’s founding members conceived of social entrepreneurship as humanity’s foundation for the future. Their many years of work at MME LTD prove that they are dedicated to bringing novel ideas and approaches to company strategy. The key areas of MME LTD’s excellence include:

It is specialized in helping underachieving schools turn a profit by providing them with the strategic guidance and support they need to improve.
• 10 MW Solar Power Plant
It is planned that MME builds a 10 MW solar power plant at Unnao, Uttar Pradesh, which is 80 km from Lucknow and 20 km from Kanpur. Through this project, MME will showcase its rapid learning skills and leadership in high-efficiency solar power systems by constructing Uttar Pradesh’s largest solar power plant in an unprecedented three months from the day the site was made accessible in May 2020. The project resounds with the brilliance of its concept and the engineering team that saw it through in record time with faultless execution and anticipation of the enormous obstacles that came with it.
Under the REC programme, MMEL has proposed establishing a 10 MW solar power facility. One of the most well-known manufacturers in the world uses only traditional grid-connected electricity for their whole production process. Thus, finding a sustainable energy source for them required tackling site complexity issues and developing an efficient plant layout. With an annual output of over 18,000 MWh (about 10 million units), the solar power facility can provide electricity to more than 70,000 Indian houses. UPPCL (Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Limited) would purchase the plant’s output to serve local consumers better.
