Alipurduar: Kalchini Youths Build Permanent Home for Elderly Kalabati Munda

• Kalabati Munda, an elderly woman from Kalchini, Alipurduar, lived in extreme poverty in a dilapidated hut near the railway station.
• Her previous bamboo-fenced house was unsafe, forcing her to seek shelter at the station during bad weather.
• A group of local youths, led by Pawan Lama, pooled their own money to construct a permanent one-room house for her.
• Kalabati Munda, who does not receive government benefits, is now relieved and grateful for her safe new home.
• This act of humanity by the Kalchini youths has been widely praised in the Kalchini Block.
