Synopsis
Who is Baba Amte? A Karamyogi, a saint, a selfless worker serving humanity? Or a publicity seeker, arrogant and an opportunist as his critics maintain? He doesn't like being called a saint. His life stories are folklore. This well-researched book is divided into different chapters representing many phrases of Baba's life and work. Despite having spent his childhood in the lap of luxury, Baba chose to fraternize with children of the deprived and the 'outcast'. He was struck by the world of misery and pain in which the Dalits and the diseased were forced to live in. Such was his commitment to serve the leprosy patients that Baba studied how to treat them. During his course at the Calcutta School of Tropical Medicine, he even got himself infected with the dead and live bacilli. He says just walk decide me and be my friend.
