Prajal R

Prajal started his change-making journey when he was 16 when he organized the first open-mic in his state to promote poetry and performing arts. During the deadly second wave of COVID-19 in India, when he was stuck in college and received numerous texts related to COVID-19 causalities, necessities, and deaths; he came up with a solution as a management system with an overall 200+ volunteers team. Using the power of social media, later he collaborated with various media houses of his state and across the country and worked as an emergency coordinator under the guidance of Chief Minister Sikkim. The team was active in 21 states in India and helped more than 1000 patients in 13 days. Moving forward, Prajal is working to launch 'Ripra Clothing' as a brand that promotes indigenous arts of 200+ tribes in the North-Eastern region of India.
