History

Ranadaprasad Saha, philanthropist and businessman, founded the charity in 1947 in Bengal[4] as Kumudini Welfare Trust of Bengal. It was named after his mother Kumudini. From 1971 to 1999 the trust was managed by Saha's daughter, Joya Pati. From 2000 Rajiv Prashad Shaha, the grandson of Ranadaprasad Saha, has headed the trust. The trust manages Kumudini Hospital, Bharateswari Homes, Nursing School, Women's Medical College, Trade training School, and Kumudini Handicrafts.[1]
