Dinesh Kamath's news 'Seal Street Run Awareness' that was published in Newsband

Seal Street Run Awareness
Towards suffering of destitute on the Streets and Railway Platforms
Dr Jayakar Ellis, President of Heart Foundation, speaks to Dinesh Kamath

Seal Street Run Awareness will take place on 1st of January 2017 between 4.00 pm to 6.00 pm. 
We plan to have a street run (swift walk) from St. Lawrence School Ground (Sector 17) to Vashi Station and to have a public addressing at Vashi Railway Station with visual presentation and street shows. We expect hundreds of volunteers and leaders from different walks of life to participate in this event.
What do we mean by SEAL STREET RUN?
Homelessness, destitute, vagabonds … etc are a common feature.  Missing, mental illness, poverty, family problems, Alcoholism are the certain thriving forces, which invites such depravity.
Most of these are the results of increasing levels of depressions. If they are landed up in the street, how long will they continue there? Without someone’s influence or help, it is difficult to get out of the prevailing situation.
Now who will take the responsibility? Always the helping hands may be a meager minority, but it is the fundamental duty of the common populace to reach and rescue. Government has always its own limitations.
The motto of SEAL street run is to make awareness to the public and societies to come out with a synthesis to touch the mourning soul.
Eye to the eyeless; voice to the voiceless; leg to the legless; hand to the handless.
The street people are always not at all the target group for the affluent or mighty, because they are vote less.
Thousands of people are infected with fatal diseases. Contagious and dreadful illnesses,   Maggots wriggling from their wounds, foul smell from the stinky dreaded wounds. Such thousands are on the streets of Mumbai.
That’s the dark face of the city of joy.  It is my duty… not a sympathy.
Be a part of Nation Building. Let’s evade such hapless people from the “daily disaster” said Pr. Philip, founder of SEAL
