Big Hug to unknown hero Vishwa Raj Singh!


ना तो यह ...आम है...ना तो यह खास है...

इनकी अपनी अलग पहचान हैं..

I have few questions: How many of us do not want to get good salary? How many of us do not want to stay in cities? How many of us do not want to be with our family? Probably good number of us! But with JEEVIKA programme of Caritas India at Jhabua (MP)-there is project Coordinator-Vishwaraj ( 27 years, basically from Rajasthan), did his engineering (B.Tech) and then Masters in Business Economics from Delhi School of Economics (Department of Business Economics, University of Delhi-South Campus)- one of the most prestigious college of economics in India.

He could have easily gone to bigger corporate sector, could have been easily earned double or triple of what he earns through JEEVIKA, could have easily stayed in bigger cities…..but he has chosen path of development…he is passionate about it…and finds Caritas India JEEVIKA –a platform to not just for project implementation, but a platform for bringing social sustainable change at community level….he wakes up early in the morning.. …and visits villages and spends time tribal community in Jhabua…and enjoy being with them….and now people are happy with the sustainable change JEEVIKA is bringing in Jhabua…..

I am just writing this because there are many real ‘heroes’ like Vishwaraj who give their most of luxury of their life to be with people …we know many policy makers…we know many who are focused in media…..but very few or hardly we know heroes like Vishwaraj….it’s all we need to recognize such heroes…

also this all the charm of Caritas India initiatives...which generates passion for 'people be with people'

My big hug to such heroes!
