|
| Kashmir Hindu Foundation Congratulates Dr. Amrit Nehru for Establishing Non-Profit Zanskar Dental Clinic in Ladakh Region. The Kashmir Hindu Foundation, Inc., proudly extends its heartfelt congratulations to Dr. Amrit Nehru, a founding member of the Foundation, for the successful establishment of the Zanskar Dental Clinic, a non-profit facility dedicated to providing essential dental care in the remote and underserved Zanskar region of Ladakh, Kashmir. This clinic has been established in loving memory of Dr. Sham L. Nehru, an ardent admirer of Ladakh and a highly respected Civil Surgeon who served the region during 1965-66. Dr. Sham L. Nehru’s dedication to public health and his compassionate service to the people of Ladakh remain an inspiration for generations. The vision for the Zanskar Dental Clinic was brought to fruition by Dr. Amrit Nehru and Mrs. Kalpana Nehru of Los Angeles, California, USA, whose personal financial contributions made the project possible. This initiative reflects Dr. Amrit Nehru’s lifelong commitment to humanitarian service, community health, and philanthropy. For decades, Dr. Amrit Nehru has been actively involved in numerous philanthropic efforts, both in the United States and in India. His work has focused on advancing healthcare access, education, and cultural preservation for marginalized communities, especially those from Kashmir and Ladakh. As a respected physician and community leader, Dr. Nehru has supported medical camps, educational scholarships, and humanitarian relief efforts, consistently working to uplift the underprivileged. |

| Speaking about the new clinic, Dr. Nehru said:"This project is deeply personal for me. It is not only a tribute to my father’s love for Ladakh but also a way to serve a community that has long been in need of basic healthcare infrastructure. Access to dental care is often overlooked in remote regions like Zanskar, and I hope this clinic will bring lasting benefit to the people here." The Kashmir Hindu Foundation lauds Dr. Nehru and Mrs. Kalpana Nehru for their vision, generosity, and dedication to humanitarian service. The establishment of the Zanskar Dental Clinic stands as a testament to the power of individual philanthropy in transforming lives and addressing critical health disparities. |
