  BSF officer celebrates promotion with underprivileged children, not a hotel party Latur , March 17 In a heart-warming departure from convention, a Border Security Force (BSF) officer chose compassion over celebration by marking his promotion with children from a shelter home instead of hosting a party at a luxury hotel.

Lokyogi – The Saga of a Mass Leader The journey of a leader who measured success not by personal gain, but by service to the people. In Lokyogi, Shivajirao Patil Kavhekar offers not just a chronicle of his life, but a rich, deeply personal narrative of the transformation of a village, a region, and ultimately, a man who rose from the soil of rural Maharashtra to shape political, social, and agricultural change with unwavering dedication.
