'Mechi-Mahakali National Rescue Journey-2083' Launched to Aid Street Dwellers

Kathmandu. A compassionate desire that no one has to live a difficult life on the streets during this rainy season has initiated the 'Mechi-Mahakali National Rescue Journey-2083'. This campaign, scheduled from Baishakh 27 to Jestha 22, is being formally inaugurated today from the Mechi bridge.

Addressing the formal inauguration ceremony of the journey, National Independent Party General Secretary and Member of Parliament Kabindra BurlaKoti stated that the support provided by Manav Sewa Ashram to the state in rescuing dependent street dwellers for the past 13 years is significant. He mentioned that the support of all three tiers of government is necessary for this humanitarian work.

Acting Chief of Kathmandu Metropolitan City, Sunita Dangol, clarified that the metropolitan city has been supporting Manav Sewa Ashram in managing street dwellers who have become homeless, along with making the city clean, civilized, and organized, and that the policy is to further increase this support in the coming days.

Veteran artist Madan Krishna Shrestha urged everyone to engage in social service, stating that there is no greater virtuous act than social service. Singer Ani Choying said that the service of Manav Sewa Ashram has inspired her to actively engage in social service, and that investment in human service yields lifelong self-satisfaction and true virtue.

Founder Chairman of Manav Sewa Ashram, Ramji Adhikari, stated that this campaign has been initiated to further strengthen humanity, compassion, service, love, and goodwill to build a nation where no one has to live as an orphan on the streets and public places of our country Nepal, which is home to many orphans. He informed that this campaign is being operated for the third time in collaboration with the Ashram and Ani Choying Dolma Foundation.

Under the leadership of singer and social worker Ani Choying Dolma, 26 volunteers will rescue citizens who are living on the streets due to lack of family or relatives' support and will be rehabilitated in the Ashram's branches located in various districts of the country.
