On February 12, 2025, KCSSR, in collaboration with SVKM’s NMIMS Mumbai, organized a free health and dental checkup camp at Vivekananda Seva Sadan O Pathan Pathan, Tantigachhi, Shimurali, PS Chakdah, West Bengal. Dr. Pritam Kumar Das (BDS, MBA), under the guidance of Dr. Mala Ghosh Moitra (President, KCSSR), conducted comprehensive health screenings and motivational sessions. Many students, previously engaged in begging and consuming unsafe food, have transformed through KCSSR’s educational programs. This initiative aligns with UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3 (Good Health & Well-being) and 4 (Quality Education) by promoting health awareness and inclusive education. Dr. Das provided oral hygiene education, nutrition guidance, and mental health support, ensuring a holistic approach to well-being. He inspired students to pursue education and self-reliance, fostering long-term community upliftment. KCSSR remains committed to empowering underprivileged tribal children through healthcare and education. This program, part of SVKM’s NMIMS Mumbai Civic Engagement Internship, strengthens grassroots impact and sustainable social development. By bridging healthcare gaps and promoting literacy, KCSSR continues to create a lasting positive change. These efforts contribute to reducing inequalities (SDG 10) and enhancing social inclusion.

KCSSR (Krishnanagar Centre for Social Studies and Research) is committed to fostering student development through holistic education, health awareness, and career mentorship. As part of the We Care Civic Engagement Internship at NMIMS Mumbai, Dr. Pritam Kumar Das (BDS, Manipal | MBA, NMIMS Mumbai) made a significant contribution under the leadership of Dr. Mala Ghosh Moitra, KCSSR’s President.

From February 5th to 12th 2025, Dr. Das spearheaded high-impact educational sessions at Kalinagar Boys’ High School, focusing on preventive healthcare, self-care strategies, and business education. He simplified dental, physical, and mental health concepts, equipping students with lifelong wellness habits. His sessions on entrepreneurship and leadership fundamentals introduced students to critical business concepts in an engaging and accessible manner.

Dr. Das demonstrated strong managerial competencies, including strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, effective communication, leadership development, and mentoring. His ability to simplify complex subjects, foster interactive discussions, and inspire critical thinking encouraged students to take charge of their future. The overwhelming enthusiasm and curiosity displayed by participants highlighted the success and impact of this initiative.

KCSSR remains committed to building a healthier, more knowledgeable, and future-ready generation by integrating health education, business acumen, and career mentorship. We extend our sincere appreciation to Dr. Das for his invaluable contribution and to NMIMS Mumbai for its meaningful partnership. Together, we cultivate empowered, forward-thinking leaders who will drive India’s progress.

KCSSR remains steadfast in its commitment to sustainable community health development, addressing critical public health challenges through targeted interventions and long-term impact strategies. Under the distinguished leadership of Dr. Pritam Kumar Das (As a part of SVKM’s NMIMS Mumbai’s We Care Internship), and the esteemed supervision of Dr. Mala Ghosh Moitra, this initiative sought to enhance sanitation practices, promote hygiene awareness, and advance oral healthcare solutions within the vulnerable community of Nagendranagar 4th Lane.

A total of 50 individuals underwent comprehensive health screenings, revealing a prevalence of tobacco-induced oral lesions, including cases of oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), a pre-cancerous condition. Additionally, inadequate waste disposal systems and poor sanitation infrastructure were identified as significant contributors to disease transmission and environmental hazards. This intervention was meticulously aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically SDG 3 (Good Health), SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), and SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), integrating public health dentistry, epidemiological assessments, and sustainability-driven behavioral frameworks.

To address these systemic concerns, KCSSR implemented a structured waste management awareness initiative, fostering community-led sanitation reforms and responsible waste disposal practices. A comprehensive dental health camp was organized, providing preventive screenings, oral hygiene education, and targeted tobacco cessation counseling. The initiative further incorporated epidemiological assessments, enabling quantitative analysis of disease risk factors and the formulation of scalable public health strategies. Moreover, a Tobacco-Free Lives Initiative was introduced, offering personalized cessation interventions, behavioral support mechanisms, and medical referrals for high-risk individuals.

In pursuit of sustainable public health transformation, KCSSR advocates for the expansion of hygiene education programs through community-driven awareness initiatives. Furthermore, efforts will be directed toward enhancing access to low-cost dental healthcare services by establishing corporate-sponsored mobile clinics. To ensure data-driven policymaking, the organization seeks to strengthen epidemiology-based frameworks that facilitate evidence-based healthcare interventions. Additionally, the implementation of sustainable tobacco de-addiction programs, fostered through public-private collaborations, remains a critical priority.

This initiative exemplifies KCSSR’s unwavering dedication to systemic health reform, fostering collaborative partnerships, community empowerment, and policy-oriented solutions. Through strategic intervention and sustained investment, we aim to cultivate healthier, more resilient communities, ensuring equitable healthcare access for all.

On 27th January 2025, KCSSR organized a Free Eye & Dental Check-up Camp at Railway Recreation Club, Krishnanagar, aiming to provide essential healthcare services to the underprivileged.

This initiative highlights KCSSR’s unwavering commitment to community welfare and accessible healthcare. We are grateful to all doctors, volunteers, and supporters who made this event possible.
