I whole-heartedly appreciate Sharad’s mission and his zeal to achieve it. Through Badlav, Sharad has really taken up the very vital task of eliminating beggars from the society and providing them with a livelihood. I really expect this initiative to help a lot in improving the lives of beggars, and it seeks to solve a very practical problem.

Badlav, started by Shri Sharad Patel, is really putting every effort to bring the deprived & marginalized sections into the mainstream society. I have personally seen his work of providing employability to beggars by putting them up in a shelter home being managed by Mr. Patel . I wish him every success in life

We deeply believe in Sharad ‘s vision of working with people who had been forced to take to begging as a means of survival, through his organization aptly called “Badlav”. Sharad’s commitment and passion for rehabilitation and enabling livelihoods of choice, instilling dignity and mental and physical wellbeing for one of the most vulnerable and marginalized communities, is inspirational. We wish Sharad, the Badlav team and all enabling institutions supporting Badlav, the very best.
