It is the social stigma associated with leprosy which kills the patients more than the disease itself.

good that he has served without th dollars, but why to reducule dollars, or Mother. If you really support the Nobels so pay homage to everybody even to dollars
One of India's most revered social and moral leaders, Baba Amte has devoted his life to the care and rehabilitation of leprosy patients, even allowing his body to be used for experiments to grow leprosy germs. His community development project at Anandwan (Forest of Bliss) near Nagpur in Maharashtra, India, is recognised and respected around the world and has done much to dispel prejudice against leprosy victims.
Baba Amte also launched the Bharat Jodo (Unite India) movements from Kanyakumari to Kashmir in 1985 and Gujarat to Arunachal Pradesh in 1988, with the mission of establishing peace and raising environmental consciousness.
In 1990, Baba Amte left Anandwan to live along the Narmada river to fight against social injustice to local inhabitants. Although he continues to support the movement for rehabilitation of tribals affected by the construction of large dams on the Narmada, he has recently returned to Anandwan for health reasons.

Baba even tried to build good relations with Pakistan as both the countries were facing same problem of poverty. Very visionary and down to earth personality. Its very difficult to live like Baba. Baba, please born again, World needs people like you.

Its my firm advice that he deserved Bharat Ratna award when he was alive with the amt of work he has done for the back trodden society. Atleast now he must be awarded with it after his death this year.
