SHRI RAKESH RAJDEV'S NOBLE WORK

Kanuda
Mitra Mandal

A civil society organisation that emerged as a ray of hope for the families who need a helping hand in the distressing times. This organisation helps deserving students who are brilliant but, due to financial issues, fall prey to material deprivation like not having stationary items like water bottles, notebooks, etc. Attempts have been made to pave students’ ways towards school so that their fundamental right to education will be protected and educational kits were also provided to them. When people failed to have two square meals, this NGO helped to spread smiles over their faces by providing them with groceries and other food items. In a nutshell, this NGO has been working wholeheartedly for people who come from all walks of life and who need help.

SHRI RAKESH RAJDEV’S THOUGHTS

I am Rakesh Rajdev, a businessman and a person who believes that service to others is the key to living a life full of contentment. You can say this trait of doing something for society was passed on to me by my late father, Prataprai Rajdev ji. Having been raised under his value system, I too decided to walk on the path shown by him so that a little contribution as an individual can be made towards the society we live in. Poverty, a social problem which gives rise to multiple deprivations, causes people to remain aloof from certain basic needs to enjoy life as individuals. Having seen the lives of people affected by poverty since childhood, seeing poverty and its aftereffects is a little difficult for me. Seeking inspiration from my conscience, which was nurtured by the good deeds of my late father, I decided to take a leap of faith to remove poverty from society. A seed of humanity was planted in the form of an NGO to serve people and bring out the justice in the idea of social welfare. I feel very grateful to run my hotel, which is situated in Dwarka and named the Roma Kristo Hotel. I believe contentment is happiness. I am a thankful individual who feels gratitude for whatever I have in my life. With the blessing of my late father, Prataprai Rajdev ji, and many people, I’ve been running my own civil society organisation (NGO) called Kanuda Mitr Mandal. Kindness descended upon me through my late father, and walking on his footprints gives me immense satisfaction to serve people without expecting anything in return. Our NGO believes in this dictum: “Nobody will be left being deprived and worn out.” This NGO turned out to be a helping hand for grief-stricken families by putting heart and soul into the work for many years, in times when a global pandemic changed the course of lives.
