Transcription

Early life

Prakash Amte is the second son[2] of Magsaysay awardee Baba Amte. He obtained a medical degree from Government Medical College (GMC), Nagpur,[2] and he met his wife Mandakini during their post graduation studies at Government Medical College (GMC), Nagpur.[2] Prakash and Mandakini joined Baba Amte and helped her father and others overcome the taboo and fear of leprosy.[2]

Lok Biradari Prakalp

In 1973, Amte moved to Hemalkasa to start the Lok Biradari Prakalp,[2] a project for the development of tribal people, most of whom were the Madia Gond in the forests of Gadchiroli district.[4] He lived and worked there for almost twenty years performing emergency surgical procedures without electricity. The project transformed into a hospital, Lok Biradari Prakalp Davakhana, a residential school, Lok Biradari Prakalp Ashram Shala, and an orphanage for injured wild animals, the Amte's Animal Park.[5] The project provides health care to about 40,000 individuals annually. The Lok Biradari Prakalp Ashram School has over 600 students, residents and day scholars.[6] Work of Amte's for Gond tribals and their philanthropic work in the form of the Lok Biradari Prakalp amongst the Madia Gonds in Gadchiroli district of Maharashtra and the neighbouring states of Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh also won them recognition.[2] Dr Prakash and his family also run a large animal conservation facility in Hemalkasa in Gadchiroli district of Maharashtra where rare, protected, and endangered animals are cared and have freedom to roam.[2] The family's legacy in philanthropy and animal conservation is now carried over by their sons Digant and Aniket and their respective families who are helping their parents now.[2]

Bibliography

Amte has published two autobiographies, Prakashvata (Pathways to Light), originally written in Marathi and now translated into English, Gujarati and Kannada, Sanskrit, Hindi and Raanmitra (Jungle Friends).[7]
