Naam Foundation to continue its work after Nana Patekar's death, says Makarand Anaspure

Veteran actor Nana Patekar died of a heart attack on October 28. His sudden death has come as a great shock to everyone. People are now asking what will happen to the Naam Foundation after him.

The Naam Foundation was started by Nana Patekar and Makarand Anaspure together. The organisation has so far helped many farmers and needy people. It works for farmers and the needy in rural areas of Maharashtra, and its future course is being discussed these days. People want to know how its work will go on.

Makarand Anaspure is said to have spoken about the foundation's future work in an interview. He is reported to have said that there should be no hurdle in this social service and that the dreams Nana Patekar saw should keep being fulfilled. The intention is to carry the organisation's work forward with even more energy.

The sentiment reflected in this stand is that the best tribute to Nana Patekar would be to keep up, without a break, the service that began to bring joy to the faces of the needy. The emphasis will be on taking forward the social work being done through the organisation.

Special emphasis will be placed on helping farmers hit by drought. Helping drought-affected farmers and people in rural areas of Maharashtra is said to be an important challenge before the Naam Foundation. Farmers face all kinds of difficulties in drought conditions. The organisation is making up its mind to continue its efforts so that they get the help they need at such a time.

The Naam Foundation has earlier too helped farmers and needy people in times of distress. Drawing on that experience and spirit of service, attention will continue to be given to helping people in drought-affected areas, it is said.

Along with helping farmers, the organisation will also focus on building the future of school and college students in rural areas. The main aim of this initiative is that capable students do not miss out on education and competitive examination opportunities because of a lack of money. Giving rural students the opportunities they need to move ahead and sharing the load of their education could also be an important part of this social work.

On the whole, the Naam Foundation is focused on carrying forward its work for farmers, the needy and rural students.
