Antyodoy Anath Ashram Details
The journey of Antyodoy Anath Ashram is truly a fascinating one. It started twenty five yearsago back in 1995, a good Samaritan of Paushi village, Sri Balaram Karan, gave shelter to a hapless child of the nearby locality. Subsequently his relentless efforts to establish the right to basic needs viz food, shelter and education of orphan children and destitutes of the vicinity have culminatedin today's Antyodoy Anath Ashram, an orphanage per excellence, where about hundred children from the downtrodden stratum of the society are being brought up under the watchful eyes of the ashram management.The orphanage, which was set up sometime in 1995 at Paunsi, a remote village in Purba Medinipur, was registered in the year 2004 under the West Bengal Societies RegistrationAct 1961.In the pristine rural idyllic backdrop, the cozy nest for such fledglings is run with a holistic approach to nurture a child with all fragrances of life like learning of music, dance, drawing and yoga etc. Sri Karan and his team have not been leaving any stone unturned during the last two decades to provide them a place, they can call home, now being showcased by district authorities.About a quarter century ago he was destined to be the chief architect to build brick by brick this shrine of humanity namely Antyodoy Anath Ashram at Paunsi, a village in Purba Medinipur district of West Bengal. The institute is 140 km away from Kolkata. With the advent of this luminary there is a paradigm shift in the social matrix in the village of Paunsi as well as its hinterlands. As a current secretary of the Antyodoy Anath Ashram Paunsi he is physically, mentality and emotionally committed to the process of empowerment of the underprivileged community.
