Supporters of PAWS-Mumbai,
God Is Great !
God cannot be everywhere, hence he made Mothers. Mothers cannot be everywhere, that’s why God took a pause & … Made PAWS-Mumbai !
PAWS-Mumbai is an acronym for Plant & Animals Welfare Society – Mumbai. It for starters, it offers Motherly love & affection to all the animals & birds alike!
My fascination for the wildlife began much before I learnt to say ABCD. Amidst my childhood days, I learnt that, the freedom of the wildlife got translated into my happiness, something that my folks didn’t buy; (only initially, thought!). Eventually, when I came across like minded people, I happened to meet Smt. Maneka Gandhi, quite incidentally. During my childhood, I encountered a death of a parrot that was attacked by a pack of crows, only due to the lack of a veterinary clinic in our locality! That’s how & when PAWS-Mumbai was born with one sole aim & intention of total freedom for the animals and I strive to achieve that, by involving youth & student in to my movement. Strange & shocking it my sound, but the fact remains that I’ve never learnt or trained to rescue or treat animals. My only inspiration & my role model was (is & will be) that late animal rescuer Steve Irwin. Gradually, when my work started to be known far & wide, the Animal Welfare Board of India (Govt. of India) honored me & my incessant works by appointing me as their Hony. Animal Welfare Officer and recently I am appointed as Hony. Animal Welfare Officer by Committee to Monitor Animal Welfare Laws in Maharashtra (Appointed by Bombay High Court).
PAWS-Mumbai, till yesterday was a dream waiting to be fulfilled, completed & accomplished, but today, the scene has changed totally. Due to the constant support from our well wishers and the media, PAWS-Mumbai has today become a force to reckon with !
Our future plans include setup a small center cum clinic, where we can keep, treat and take care of injured birds & animals, especially for wildlife, as now we use to keep it in our homes, to say the least.
