Bengaluru, May 9, 2025 — A special community baby shower event titled Janani was held at the BBMP Maternity Hospital in NR Colony, celebrating motherhood and supporting over 60 pregnant women from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. The program was organized by the Radhakrishna Foundation, in association with the Katte Sathya Foundation.
All participating women were BPL card holders in their late stages of pregnancy (more than five months). Each of them received a thoughtful gift hamper consisting of a saree, bangles, fruits, protein powder, and a stainless-steel plate—aimed at providing both care and encouragement during a crucial time in their maternal journey.
Mrs. Revathi Kamath, noted environmentalist and philanthropist, was the Chief Guest at the event. “Motherhood is the foundation of any healthy society,” she said in her address. “It is heartening to see initiatives like this that empower women with knowledge, nutrition, and medical attention.”
Other dignitaries present included Shri Ravi Subramanya, MLA, Basavanagudi; Shri B.S. Satyanarayana (Katte Sathya), former Mayor and President of the Katte Sathya Foundation; and Dr. Vidya V. Bhat, Chairman of Radhakrishna Foundation and Medical Director of RadhaKrishna Multispecialty Hospital.
Dr. Vidya V. Bhat remarked, “This initiative is about honoring motherhood, educating expectant mothers on pregnancy care, checking their health status, and promoting safe, hospital-based deliveries. Such efforts go a long way in ensuring healthy outcomes for both mothers and babies.”
The Radhakrishna Foundation has been consistently organizing such community baby shower (Seemantha) events as part of its ongoing commitment to maternal health and well-being.
