Industrialist Anand Mahindra recently praised a heart-touching story on social media. He called Dr. Ganesh Rakh “an angel of grace and generosity” for his amazing kindness. Dr. Rakh has been delivering baby girls without charging any fees. This sweet gesture turns the birth of a baby girl into a joyful celebration. Anand Mahindra, a proud father of two daughters, shared how deeply he understands when “an angel is born.” He was moved by Dr. Rakh’s story and quoted the doctor’s beautiful promise: “When angels are born, I don’t charge any fee.” The story was originally told by D Prasanth Nair from Pune. A poor daily-wager brought his wife to Dr. Rakh’s hospital for a C-section. Afraid of high bills and debt, he was shocked when Dr. Rakh said the delivery would be free. Overcome with emotion, the man fell at the doctor’s feet, saying, “Sir, you are God.” For over ten years, Dr. Ganesh Rakh has helped more than 1,000 baby girls come into the world without charging their families a single rupee. This promise came from his mother’s inspiring words: “Become a doctor and protect these angel girls.” His special ‘Save the Girl Child’ initiative has become a shining light against the harsh social norms that often undervalue girls. In many parts of India, girls’ birth is sadly a reason for sadness or silence. But Dr. Rakh changes this with a bold yet simple idea—show love and care with no big ads or loud campaigns, just repeated kind acts. People online have been deeply touched. Many said this story made them think about the power of kindness and their own roles in society. Several called for government recognition of such rare, pure-hearted service. Others called Dr. Rakh a true hero—not for fame or money, but for choosing humanity first. In a world hungry for kindness, Dr. Ganesh Rakh’s story reminds us all: Sometimes, the smallest acts of love shine the brightest and change lives forever.
