MA NIKETAN

Had the chance of paying a visit to an orphanage named MA NIKETAN in thane… it houses around 385 girls aged 4 to 22 yrs… such a wonderfully maintained orphanage… and most important was that there was proper utilization of funds and donation… all donors present there were very happy with the way the donations are used at tht place.. even the girls present there were smiling.. and of course their health showed that they were well cared for over there…
But the sad thing was that all these girls had either been abandoned by their parents or had been left alone after parents death or had run away from home… there were two 4 yr old girls who were left behind by their parents.. one look at them and you would want to literally kill those ppl who might have left them… they have one more branch at asangaon.. where there are around 400 girls..
If anyone can then they should go pay a visit to this orphanage sometime… if they are interested in volunteering themselves for help then they can join a NGO named UDAAN of whom even I am a member… we had a medical camp at tht place where I did their eye check up…

This is 1 of d ugly side of human beings...They desire 2 hav a child n then abondon it if its a girl child...Or else y d hell do they produce a child aftr child if they cant afford havng so many children!?! N God knows y they thnk tat having a girl child is a headache.... Rathr than spreading awareness among such ppl they shud b hangd til death....I wonder how those children must b feeling tat they r abondoned...Such parents shud keep themselves in d shoes of such children b4 abondoning them....Thanks to such NGO's tat they take care of such children...N yeah dada i'll surely like 2 bcum member of such a ngo aftr my graduation n help them in any way i can...
