Baba Amte is a legacy which Ambanis or Tata's CAN NOT compte.Earning crores is different thing and to go in an remote jungle to make life of adivasis of easy for no gain is different thing.Yes we need Ambanis and Tatas as well as Selfless, dedicated socialist like Baba Amte also.He was man who served the lepors and instilled self-respect and confidence in them.He served those Adivasis in remote jungles of Vidarbha who had never seen civilization. Who were not used to wear clothes or cook food. Baba not only educated them but some them have becomes doctors and are serving their own adivasi community.
