Ajit Pratap Singh, an officer in the Social Welfare Department in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, has launched a unique initiative called “Devdoot Vanar Sena” driven by his compassion to help those in need. Over the past few years, the initiative has provided assistance worth millions of Rupees. Beyond financial aid, the group supports people by helping them find jobs, offering relief during disasters, assisting in medical emergencies, organising blood donations, and extending help in many other ways. Thousands of volunteers, many of whom were previously unknown to each other, have come together through this initiative. In one case, the group helped raise around Rs 3 million for the treatment of a young man.
