Manzil

Ravi Gulati took to teaching children of drivers, barbers and maids near his home in New Delhi's Khan Market. He wanted to work in the villages but stayed back in Delhi because two poor children needed tuitions from him. While he taught them he realised what he was doing was equally important in urban India as what he would have done in rural India. He started an NGO, Manzil, along with his mother and Dr. Geeta Chopra. The organisation has a branch at Kotla, a slum area in Delhi.Manzil's story on NDTV as part of its Unstoppable Indians series
