ABOUT SHRI VED PRAKASH GUPTA

Shri Ved Prakash Gupta was an Ex-chairman of KMVN and a well-known personality in Politics, Social Works & Business and all of above was a great human being. He was associated with RSS since his childhood days and with the Nav Yuvak Samajik Sangathan in the decade of 1970-80, under the banner of the Sangathan he started an agitation against ‘TINCHI’, a fatal drug having alcohol as a major component, that made the youth addicted and was used to be taken by the youth. He had been the state treasurer of BJP for many years and was the conservator of the Haldwani Vaishya Maha-Sabha too.

When a person works following the moral principles of life, definitely his life becomes a blessing for others too. Ved Ji was a vital person…..brimful of good turn….. established school (BLM Academy) to give personal contribution to the society to brighten the future of the nation, started a newspaper (Uttaranchal Deep) to counter the corruption in the present system….

Ved Ji started his career as a salesman in ‘Bata’ company but later, due to his strong determination and dedication, he acquired the financial prosperity. Ved Ji would always say that money can be earned for self but, the main subject is the direction of spending it. Whatsoever we earn, we should spend at least a part of it for the welfare of the poor without wishing any propaganda.

Ved Ji was above of the particular party spirits. He always believed that the agenda of politics should always be towards humanity. He was so popular amongst the other party members because of his fearlessness of presenting the right logic.
