With this exposure and experience, it was obvious, that Late Sh. Satya Pal Baghi, went on to become a Social Activist of grate stature. His only “Vision” was the upliftment of the region. Being an intellectual and Journalist, it was his firm belief, that “Literacy” is the most powerful tool for “Empowerment and Progress”. He dedicated his life to promote this vision, through personal efforts and government support. His determination to give shape to this noble cause became more steadfast, when he lost his young son Dr. Anil Baghi at the hands of mindless militants.
He set up a super specialty hospital, with equipment of high-end technology. It was a very brave step, considering the back-wardness of this region. This was followed by a Nursing Institute, which is popular for its high caliber training and has a record placement abroad . In 1992, he convinced the Government to set up Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Engineering College, in memory of the great martyr. He then established Dr. Anil Baghi, Memorial Charitable Society, whose primary aim is to promote ”Higher Education” and “Healthcare”, by creating a world class infrastructure.
In 2005 he set up the Genesis Institute of Dental Science and Research. In 2007, he initiated the process of giving shape to a 150 crore project to set up a Multiple Discipline Healthcare. Just prior to his demise, he gave shape to the blue print to upgrade the existing Genesis Institute Of Dental Science and Research, Ferozepur, to Post Graduate Institution status. Today, Ferozepur is the most popular of the Courageous, Selfless and Dedicated contribution of Late Sh. Satya Pal Baghi, more popular as Papji to all his well wishers. |
