He assured that the government stands firmly behind initiatives aimed at strengthening healthcare infrastructure and social outreach, particularly those that directly benefit marginalized communities.
The celebration also served as a reminder of the organization’s remarkable journey spanning over a century. From a small maternity home to a multifaceted social service network, Matru Sewa Sangh has touched countless lives, becoming an integral part of Nagpur’s identity and social fabric.
Fadnavis highlighted that the spirit of service and dedication shown by the institution continues to inspire future generations, urging society to support and uphold such initiatives that contribute to nation-building at the grassroots level.
As the event concluded, the atmosphere reflected both pride and gratitude, honoring a legacy that has nurtured generations and continues to stand as a beacon of hope and humanity in Maharashtra.
