Mittal Patel
Founder & Managing Trustee, VSSM, Ahmedabad
Mittal Patel is a catalyst of change. Her work in uplifting & nurturing the Nomadic and De-Notified Tribes has been instrumental. Her relentless advocacy of their rights since 2005 has helped the communities to obtain their identity as Indian citizens and benefit from several government welfare programs. Her pursuit of making a difference doesn’t end there. Her work towards water-conservation in villages of Banaskantha district, a semi-arid area that borders Pakistan has become an example for many villages in the region to follow. In about two years, her organisation, VSSM has successfully deepened 87 village lakes in 45 villages of Banaskantha. Great work, we must say!
