MIT-WPU Presents Bharat Asmita to Dignitaries

"Even today, over 110 million people in India do not have access to healthcare. Dedicate your life to serving them. Vinoba Bhave once said, 'Jai Jagat'—a sentiment echoed through Vishwanath Karad's mission of world peace," said social activist and director of SEARCH Foundation, Abhay Bang, while receiving the Bharat Asmita Lifetime Achievement Award at MIT World Peace University (MIT-WPU).
