"Today many people are switching to free software for purely practical reasons. That is good, as far as it goes, but that isn't all we need to do! Attracting users to free software is not the whole job, just the first step."- Richard Matthew Stallman, President of the Free Software Foundation (FSF)

About the group
LibrePlanet JRE Group of Institutions (LPJGI) is the group of our college JRE Group of Institutions. JREans who are users and supporters of free software took the initiative to form a community that would encourage people to switch from proprietary software to free software. Even though most of are not coders or software engineers, yet, as a computer user, it is important for us to know why software freedom is so essential. So, we aim to spread our message through the following activities:
- write-ups
- speeches
- presentations
- workshops
- seminars
- projects
LPJGI was formed on October 30, 2014.
