Retired vice president of Shri Ram Group, KK Sharma, is making a difference by imparting free healthcare, education and self-defence training
Who says there cannot be a hole in the sky, a stone hurts you guys. This phrase is a reflection on a social worker in Ghaziabad, who has been constantly working on grass root level, away from the glare of publicity for the last thirty years. We are talking about KK Sharma, who after retiring as the vice president of Shri Ram Group started social services.
Currently, under his supervision, OPD service is being operated in five dispensaries where hundreds of economically backward people are treated on a regular basis. The special thing is that two of these dispensaries are mobile, this means that they can go to areas where there is a lack of health services. Out of these, three dispensaries are running permanently in Sanjaynagar Sector 23, Nandagram and Shahpur. Sharma had obtained MBA, LLB and a master’s degree in social service. There is Polytechnic Center on Meerut Road for the economically-backward girls too, who are not able to pursue higher studies because of financial constraints. It has been running for the last several years where 120 daughters are trained and nurtured every year. Not only this, overwhelmed by the slogan of Modi’s Beti Padhao, Beti Bachao, his team is also offering martial arts training in many government schools of the city. Out of this, some of the girls have even won various medals in several state and national level competitions.
Sharma also provides free legal aid. Apart from this, they have also constructed toilets in government schools. His next mission is to repair the deteriorating environment of the city, for which he has already started working.
He is certainly making a difference through free healthcare, employment generation, education and self-defense training. This will make more and more students self-reliant.
