It would be different if we read what he has said about himself and his inciting and motivating work. He says-
“I love animals for as long as I can remember, I was a real stubborn kid and always used to trouble my mother to eat. Every morning she used to take me out, we had some colony dogs so my mother used to feed them the half chapatti so that the half would be eaten by me. I think that little gesture made by my mom has impacted my life in a tremendous way.”
He has stated that their work is not just limited to rescuing dogs but rescuing other animals like cats, turkeys, hens, ducks, rabbits, and birds too.
He has successfully formed a self-sufficient, self-governing system in his college which attracts students in making their contributions in some way, big or small. This ensures the running of the helping shelter. This contribution system also engages students in activities other than studies. The animal shelter is located within the college campus. He is the first person to make his college the World’s First Animal-Friendly Educational Campus.
HE IS A BRAINWAVE AND A BRAINSTORM for the Youth.
