Dr Radha Krishan Thakur, a tributeDr Radha Krishan Thakur, our Patron left for his heavenly abode on 20th December, 2013 leaving behind a big vacuum in Bharat

Vikas Parishad especially in Delhi State (South). A legend and true social worker, he inspired all of us to work towards helping the

needy and handicapped. He was true to his motto : gj vk¡[k ls vk¡lq ikasNsxsA

“ Dr Thakur was born on 22nd April, 1932. His mother Smt Sohan Devi an dfather Shri Rikhikesh were God fearing people and great

social workers. He learnt his first lesson of helping needy from them.

His early education was in Multan. After partition his family shifted to India and he did his B.Ed. in Delhi in1954. He then started his

career as a teacher in Ajmer. To further his teaching capabilities, he continued his education and did MA in History and thereafter

PhD in education. He founded ‘Arya Sabha’ for students to work for seva & social work.

Dr Thakur joined DAV Vidyalaya at Baird Lane, Gole Market, New Delhi as PGT (Jiwan Vigyan) teacher in

1955. In 1961 he moved to MBDAV School, Yusuf Sarai as History teacher. His marriage to Dr Meenaji was

solemnized in 1963. He set an example in society with a very simple marriage without any dowry. In

Meenaji he found a partner with similar motives and could continue his simple lifestyle. All savings from

salary aftermeeting household expenses were spent on help to needy. He became the Principal of MBDAV

School in 1980. During his tenure MBDAV School achieved new heights. In 1982 Dr Thaur started a new

school on the first floor to provide public school type education to poor & needy children. In 1991 he was

conferred with a State award by the Govt., the highest given to a teacher. After retirement he became the

Chairman of both Schools.

Dr Thakur joined Bharat Vikas Parishad in 1982. He established Janakpuri Main Branch in 1983 and was its

founder President. He was appointed Vice President of Delhi State in 1990 and then it’s President. In 1990

was able to fulfill his long cherished dream of providing help to disabled by being instrumental in the establishment of the First

Viklang Sahayata Kendra of BVP "Delhi Bharat Vikas Foundation" in undivided Delhi State. His success lay in his principle to start any

project with funds from his personal donation before asking others. Because of his untiring efforts the Viklang Kendra was highly

successful and within 5 years received recognition in 1995, with the President of India presenting the Kendra with a National Award

for the welfare of the handicapped and in public recognition of their outstanding performance as employers of handicapped

persons. He also gave emphasis to Bal Sanskar and always said one must become a successful professional but it is also very

necessary to become a nice human being”. He was also instrumental in providing through BVP, Janakpuri, Education, Yoga &

Handicraft Classes etc. to prisoners (3000 plus) of Tihar Jail No.4. He also celebrated festivals, bhajans & Havens with them for

character building. Besides Bharat Vikas Paishad, he was also associated with many other social service organisations – President

Sanatan Dharam Mandir, Janakpuri C3 from 1981-1991, President Janakpuri Dharmik Samajik Mahasangh till 1996 and founded

Delhi Dharmik Samajik Mahasangh, Patron Sanatam Dharam Pratinidhi Sabha in 2001, President Janakpuri Krishan & Ramlila

Samiti, President of Federation of Janakpuri MIG flats RWAs, President Confederation of Janakpuri MIG / LIG flats & Plot Holders

RWAs. He remained committed to Nar Seva, Narain Seva even after his demise by donating his eyes for the blind and his whole body

for study of medical students. Kudos to Meenaji for taking such a difficult decision in fulfillment of his wishes.gtkjksa o"kZ ufxZl viuh csuwjh is jksrh gS] cM+h eqf’dy ls gksrk gS peu ls nhnkokj iSnkA

‘ We at Delhi South have had the privilege of having Dr. Thakur as our mentor and guide in his ceaseless work for the underprivileged

and pledge to be true upholders of his legacy of tireless work for the handicapped.

Children Personality Development Camps/ Bal Sanskar Camps

Five such camps attended by 120 children, were organized. It is really heartening to find that these children defied the spine chilling cold of this December with their enthusiasm and over brimming energy from 7am to 9am every Sunday.

ndA special camp for senior students was organized on 2 Saturday i.e. 14.12.2013. 39 students participated marching on song “Rashtra Kee CHETNA”. Rehersal of “Geeta SAR and 'SHALOKA from GEETA' was done to motivate them to learn them. They were encouraged to speak extempore on the life of Great Saint Swami Vivekanand. The response was encouraging. All the children were served with sumptuous BRUNCH.

3 girls of our adopted Sewa Basti were given provisions, grocery and other relevant items to solemnise their marriages. Further a paralytic young boy Ashish s/o widow Vimla Devi r/o W68/86 JJ Colony Pankha Road, undergoing treatment at R.M.L. Hospital for paralysis, was given one time help of Rs 5000/- cash.

In our regular monthly meeting with our colleagues specially Senior Citizens whose birthday falls in December were felicitated wishing them long and peaceful life.

Swami Shardha Nand Balidan Divas was celebrated in the packed to capacity hall of Shri Hari Mandir. Acharya Devinder Shastri threw light on the inspiring life and glorious deeds of Swami Ji. He made a fervent appeal to follow the foot steps of this great Martyr and work with dedication for the upliftment of our society to arrest degeneration seeping into it.

In the end Mrs. Madhu Seth, President of the Branch, proposed a vote of thanks. After light refreshment meeting came to close.

In one village alone Didi Maa met 64 widows and several children. “ My heart went out to them and immediately I thought of opening a Vatsalya Gram Centre there itself”, she said. “ While rations were pouring in and another NGO was offering proposals for the re-marriage of the widows, no one was thinking of their rehabilitation”, she further said. This job was undertaken by Vatsalya Gram. The money came in; rations and volunteers were available aplenty.

In Ruderprayag district 2 Vatsalya Sewa Kendras have been established and 150 children have been admitted in these Kendras. Their lodging, boarding, education are all FREE at these Kendras. 70 children have been awarded scholarships; vocational training in sewing, knitting, etc. with sewing machines and other necessities have been provided at 10 centres in places like Barrasu, Rampur, Triyuginarayan. Employment to several persons has been provided at these centres. Additionally, more than 10 such centres are being planned.

As Didi Maa related these facts, donations started pouring in and a total sum of Rs. 6.81 lakh was collected. Following were the major donors:

Smt. Sandooran Kapur : Rs. 4.00 lakhs, Sh. & Smt. V.K. Malhotra: Rs. 1.00 lakh. S/Sh.Yogesh Marwaha, S.L. Malhotra, L.R. Uppal, Hari Om, K.K. Kaushal, Dr. Meena Thakur and Dr. Ranjeet Pa ra s h a r co nt r i b u te d R s . 12,000/- each. Shri K. L. Dhall donated Rs. 11,000/- and many others contributed varying amounts. Didi Maa was overwhelmed, indeed.

She thanked and blessed the donors who spared a thought for the unfortunate brethren who have lost everything in the natural calamity. She also thanked Bharat Vikas Parishad, B Block Jankpuri Branch for arranging such functions every year.

Earlier, Shri Jai Bhagwan, ex- MLA Delhi Assembly and General Secretary of the organization explained in detail the concept of Kamdhenu Gaugrih being run at the Vatsalyagram, Vrindavan.

Shri V.K. Malhotra, Secretary of the Branch who conducted the programme thanked all volunteers of the BVP as well the Mandir Committee for their help and cooperation for the success of the programme

Under , hearing aids were given to 6 needy persons. 540 note books and other stationery items were given to Ek Rahat, an NGO engaged in the replenishment of street children.

Five were organized in January, 2014 in which 50 persons were benefitted; 3 were counselled for de-addiction.

The Branch donated a sum of Rs. 6.81 to HH Sadhvi Ritambhara who graced Janakpuri once again by

th thher visit on 26 January, 2014. This was her 5 visit. The Branch has been lucky to receive her blessings every year and offer their financial help for her pet project Vatsalya Gram at Vrindavan.

This time, however, the focus was on the work being done by the Didi Maa, as she is fondly addressed, for the rehabilitation of the widows

and orphaned children of Uttrakhand after the worst natural calamity it had to suffer.

Learn from a Pencil

A pencil is not merely a pencil, but the process of using it

contains a few subtle lessons for all:

It has five qualities which, if followed properly, will make a

person be at peace with the world.

1. You are capable of great things, but you must never forget

that there is a hand guiding your steps.

2. Now and then, you have to stop writing and use a

sharpener. That makes the pencil suffer a little, but

afterwards, it's much sharper. So you, too, must learn to

bear certain pains and sorrows, because they will make

you a better person.

3. While writing, we have to use an eraser to rub out any

mistakes. This means that correcting something helps to

keep us on the road to justice.

4. What really matters in a pencil is not its wooden exterior,

but the graphite inside. So always pay attention to what is

happening inside you.

5. The pencil always leaves a mark. Same way, you should

know that everything you do in life will leave a mark, so try

to be conscious of that in your every action.

No man will make a great leader who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit for doing it.-Andrew Carnegie

The philosophy of Bharat Vikas Parishad rests on its 5 cardinal

principles viz. Sampark, Sahyog, Sewa, Sanskar and Samarpan.

While Sewa and Sanskar are most prominent, Sanskar occupies

the most predominant position as it is directed to the school

children who are our leaders of tomorrow.

The following 2 school-based activities are organized though out

the country during the months of September/October every

year.

1. Guru Vandan-Chhatra Abhinandan (GVCA):The primary

purpose of this programme is to strengthen in the minds of

children their love and respect for their parents and teachers.

The students pay respects to their teachers while the teachers

honour their loved students. This activity takes place in the

respective schools at the time of morning assembly. As a part of

this programme in which representatives of BVP articulate the

activities of BVP to the students and teachers, all of them are

administered an OATH ( in Hindi or English) reproduced below:

Promoting Oath And Patriotic Songs

2. National Group Song Competition/National Sanskrit Group

Song Competition (NGSC/NSGSC): These are two Group Song

Competitions in which school teams compete with their

counterparts in other neighbouring schools. The songs are

patriotic and are selected out of booklets published by BVP

CHETNA KE SWAR & RASHTRIYA SANGEETIKA.

As per the current practice the OATH is administered just once a

year only when the GVCA programme is organized. We feel that

is not enough. Repeated exposure to this oath should be in

place.

Promoting OATH & Patriotic Songs :

Similarly, songs included in the booklet Chetna Ke Swar are full

of love for the country. Only one of these songs is sung by a

group of 7-8 students once a year when they take part in the

NGSC competition. This is perhaps not enough.

Through this write up I request all Branches of our Prant as also

others to make the above 2 activities REGULAR and more

FREQUENT instead of being ANNUAL. For this, I as the Convener

of Sanskar of BVP, Delhi (South) requested all Branches to

impress upon the school authorities in their respective areas to:

• Include the text of OATH and at least ONE patriotic song from

Chetna Ke Swar in their school diaries which will remain with the

children for full ONE YEAR and they will be in touch with these

items;

• Administer the OATH to their children in the morning assembly

AT LEAST ONCE IN A WEEK,

• Similarly, they can request their learned Music Teacher to give

music to the song selected for the Diary, and the same song can

be sung in the morning assembly at least on a weekly basis. I had

even suggested the song Chandan hai….. for this purpose.

• While I have not received any information from other Branches

of our Prant, B Block Janakpuri Branch has taken the initiative

and I am told, that 4 schools in their area have already agreed to

adopt the OATH and ' Chandan hai….for their school diaries as

well as morning assemblies.

I congratulate the Executives of B Block Janakpuri Branch for

spreading this message to schools in their area. For school have

already agreed to the proposaI. I also request other Branches to

undertake to promote these 2 items among 'their' schools so

that the real purpose of BVP initiatives is achieved.

K.B. Mahajan,

Convener, Baal Sanskar, BVP, Delhi ( South)

The Oath

• I solemnly resolve that I will always pay due respects to my

parents, teachers, women and elders.

• I will discharge my duties and responsibilities keeping in mind the national culture, traditions, moral values and civil rights.

• I will neither smoke nor consume any narcotic products in any form.
