This man is known for his commitment to helping the underprivileged, Prasanta Mazumdar writes
-
SHEWANG Gyachho embodies love, compassion and a deep sense of social responsibility. Known for his quiet commitment to helping the underprivileged, particularly patients battling serious illnesses, his life’s mission has been rooted in giving back to society—especially to those who, like him, once struggled with economic hardship.
Born into a farming family in Kabi village of North Sikkim, education was a luxury Tshewang could barely afford. Despite limited resources, his parents ensured he received proper schooling, believing education was the only path to a better future. Their faith paid off. Tshewang went on to complete a B Tech in Food Technology from Maharashtra and later cracked the state civil services examination in 1992. He was promoted to the rank of IAS in 2013.
