Karmveers of India


I am an ardent follower of  KBC-10 particularly Kamveer episodes. These karmveers have done such marvelous work that I think I just wasted my life  earning only a living for me and my family. I remember seeing a mentally deranged man every day during morning walk,  sitting and sleeping on a bench of a bus stop near our home or eating from garbage bins. I was scared to talk or stare at him but one day decided to give some clothes to this half naked man to cover him self during the winter months. Next day I carried a small carry back with one old shirt and a pyjama. Being scared I left it as near to him as I could without offending him. Next day I saw he had worn these clothes though in a messy way. I could muster some courage and next day I left a old chaddar and some biscuits near him. I could see him immediately open the bag and started eating the biscuits. That day was the last day I noticed him. Still wonder where he had gone. This small incident gave tremendous satisfaction to me. Recently I gave some money to son of my ex maid who needed to under go some costly operation and had no money. But these small things done intermittently is too little for this society. KBC karmveers gave us some insight into life of few extra ordinary people. 


Dr Prakash and Dr Mandakini Amte who instead of usual carrier option, have dedicated their life for uplift of a Adiwasis village which lacked any modern facility, now this village has electricity, school hospital. The doctor couple also had a orphanage for wild animals. Simply awesome life full of good work.



This photo is of Ms Sudha Vergese. She has championed the cause of mushars of Bihar / UP. A caste at the bottom of social ladder. Not only that mushars women make and sell country liquor  are not surprised if they have to sleep with their customers. Ms Vergese has been also active to see that Police acts on complaints from this community. 

Mr Ajit and Mrs Manju Singh. Singhs are active in the red light areas mainly to rescue minor girls in the flesh trade. He narrated during KBC that he has found even 6-7 years girls in flesh trade and the brothel keepers use hormone for fast maturity of such minor girls. Very commendable efforts by them.  They have made the red light area of Varanasi free of minor girls. 

Ms Sarbani Dasroy works for treating and welfare of mentally deranged people who are home less and forced to stay in the streets of Kolkata. Even tea vendors have aligned with her for taking care of such home less people near to him. 

Salute to these great children of mother India.
