Meet Mr. Naresh Sijapati, the pedestrian with a Cause!

20 July 2022, Hazaribagh: Today Mr. Girija Satish (President, NBJK) welcomed Mr. Naresh Sijapati, 28 years old young man from Ahmedabad with a tote bag & flex board fixed upon flag stick with tricolor.

He started his walking tour from Mumbai in Maharashtra on 14 June this year and reached to Jharkhand after crossing Madhya Pradesh & Chhattisgarh. He will go to Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan and Gujarat at last.

This is 5100 km foot-soldiering spanned up to 120 days, but why?

For the cause of migrant laborers, Mr. Naresh says what mentioned on his flex board too. Self-learning and making people aware over the issues of migrant workers are my objective for this journey, he explains further.

As a token support to this courageous social worker, NBJK has arranged food & accommodation at Hazaribagh, Chauparan and Bodh Gaya on his way.

Mr. Naresh Sijapati belongs to a migrant laborer family from Nepal now settled at Ahmedabad. He runs “Panah” an organization there and works with migrant/semi-migrant laborers as providing training, jobs, education support to them & their children.
