In a world that’s rushing forward, some hearts choose to stay behind — to serve, to feed, and to heal. One such heart belongs to 70-year-old Anoop Khanna, the man behind the extraordinary initiative Dadi Ki Rasoi in Noida, Uttar Pradesh.
Meet the Man with a Mission
Though it’s called Dadi Ki Rasoi, the kitchen is run by Mr. Anoop Khanna, who started this initiative in 2015, after being inspired by the struggles of the poor and a desire to make a difference post-retirement. At an age when many think of slowing down, he chose to speed up compassion.
