Answer:
Sindhutai was married at ten, abandoned by her husband at twenty, became mother at the same age and had nowhere to go. She begged for a living. The Divine however, had different plans for her. She adopted one child and gradually it became a movement. Without any government support and by sharing her life’s story through talks she opened orphanages and brought up over 1,200 children. It only goes to show that life is what you make out of it.
Childhood is a blissful phase of life. Parents love and pamper their children and make them the centre of their world. However, the same childhood can be horrifying when a child has no parents. There is no greater sorrow than being an orphan or leading a life without shelter. Having said that, the Divine sends people to Mother Earth to make a difference. Sindhutai is one such person; by becoming a mother to orphans Sindhutai became God’s gift to thousands of orphaned children.
Who is Sindhutai Sapkal?
She is a renowned and a devoted social worker who focuses on prioritizing the lives of orphaned children. Her decision to look after orphaned children was triggered by her own life experiences. During her childhood Sindhutai went through phases where she missed having someone by her side. In one of her interviews she said that it was at such times that she realized what it meant to be abandoned. Having suffered thus, she made it her life’s mission to stand by needy and homeless children.
Her greatness and kind nature is reflected in one of her speeches. She said, ‘I am with everyone who has no other people to look after them’.
Early life and struggles
Sindhutai was born on 14th November 1948 in a cattle grazing family in Maharashtra’s Wardha district. Her father was keen to educate her but mother was not. At the age of ten she was married to a man twenty years her senior. Post marriage she faced a difficult life but she did not lose hope. In her new home she fought against the exploitation of local women, who collected cow dung, by the forests department and landlords
This only made things more difficult for her.
At the young age of twenty, when nine- months pregnant, she was beaten badly and left to die by her husband. She gave birth to a baby girl Mamta in that semi-conscious state and struggled to stay alive. Sindhutai took to begging on the streets and railway platforms to survive. Because she feared being picked up by men at night she often spent the night at cemeteries. Such was her condition that people called her a ghost since she was seen at night in the cemeteries.
