Inspiring Juveniles with Veer Savarkar’s Life Lessons

Place: Yerwada

Through the efforts of Sanjeevani Foundation, a storytelling program was organized at Yerwada Juvenile Home for children. The aim of this initiative was to inspire positive thinking, instill motivation, and guide children on the path of rehabilitation.

On this occasion, the keynote speaker Mr. Satyaki Savarkar (grandson of Swatantryaveer Savarkar) narrated the life story of Veer Savarkar. He beautifully conveyed the place of Bharat Mata in Savarkar’s life and emphasized the importance of God, Nation, and Dharma in every individual’s journey. He guided the children on how to live a meaningful life by walking the right path. The children listened attentively and absorbed the lessons.

The event was attended by Mr. Swapnil Raut, and concluded with the traditional Ganesh Aarti.

Rehabilitation is not just limited to punishment in a correctional home; it is a process of giving a new direction to a child’s or an individual’s life. The rehabilitation initiatives of Sanjeevani Foundation focus not on punishment, but on transformation and reintegration. Through stories, values, history, and education, the Foundation strives to instill new confidence in children rejected by society as “criminals.”

Crime is not always just an individual’s fault; sometimes it results from lack of guidance or social support. Simply punishing is not the solution — true change lies in rehabilitation.

The storytelling initiative by Sanjeevani Foundation at Yerwada Juvenile Home was not just a program — it was an attempt to light a ray of hope in young hearts. Listening to inspiring stories sparked a new flame of determination in their eyes. This is our true purpose — not to create offenders, but to nurture responsible and confident citizens.

Sanjeevani Foundation firmly believes that rehabilitation is the foundation of real social transformation, and will continue to remain committed to this mission.
