About The Founder

Mr. Gopinath. R

Mr. Gopinath. R comes from the remote village of Manchigana halli in Kolar district. He was the youngest in an educated family of 4 children (1 elder sister and 2 elder brothers). He did not enjoy a joyful childhood because his father sold all the family’s properties and the house to fund his alcohol addiction before finally abandoned the family when Gopinath was 3 years old. His mother started to live without shelter, with 4 young children, and later in a hut built thanks to someone’s help who gave some space in his premises (now also people of Manchigana halli called Gudusalu Ramakka and their children). The children could not afford to go to school, and were forced to work with their mother. Even the young Gopinath had to accompany his elder brother to clean cow shed and work in the farming field for daily meals.
