Every morning, while driving through Kochi’s clogged roads, he scans for children working in shops or begging for a living. “I photograph them,” says Murugan, who has a costly digital camera, a gift from one of his many fans. “Then I lodge a complaint with the nearest police station.” Over the past six years, Murugan has rescued more than 2,000 children from different parts of the city.
What drives his mission? “It is my own life,” says Murugan, who hails from a poor family in Chengotta district in Tamil Nadu. His parents migrated to Idukki district in Kerala in search of work. “That was before I was born,” he recalls. “We were a happy family. My parents were plantation labourers. My mother earned Rs 300 a month.”
Then he brought up in the slums of Kochi by seeing the growth of Metro Kochi .
Bro.Mavooris a well known Social worker has given a new life path to Murugan from the slum boy image. Murugan got a new life with many friends in Don Bosco Snehabhavan. From there, Murugan learned to write and speech in Malayalam. Where Murugan has got vocational training to building construction as a mason. More over the harden experience of life taught him to love the world with kindness and humanity like a deep sea…….!
After completing the secondary level education in open school system, he used to sell newspapers and played in foot ball tournaments. For getting better salary hood he learned to drive auto rickshaw too.
Every morning, he work for the society by rescuing kids and old age people from the street and provide shelter, food, medicine according to their needs and meet the expenses from the late night drive..
Mother Teresa is his role model and inspiration. Now he realizes his life as dedication to wipe out the pains of millions in street like a God faith…..Murugan flag of the Journey of Theruvoram since 2007.In 2012 Theruvoram celebrating sixth Birth day!! During the race of humanity Murugan saved the life of 5000 people!!

പ്രിയപ്പെട്ട സഹോദരാ..,
നിങ്ങളെക്കുറിച്ച് ഒരുപാട് കേട്ടിട്ടുണ്ട്.വെറും അഭിനന്ദനങ്ങളില്‍ ഒതുക്കാവുന്നതിലും വളരെ അപ്പുറത്താണ് നിങ്ങളുടെ പ്രവര്‍ത്തനങ്ങള്‍.നിങ്ങളെ വന്നു കാണണമെന്നും എന്റെ കഴിവിന്‍റെ പോലെ തെരുവോരത്തിനായി പ്രവര്‍ത്തിക്കണമെന്നും എനിക്കഗ്രഹമുണ്ട്.ഞാനിപ്പോള്‍ ഒരു അപകടത്തില്‍പ്പെട്ട് വയനാട്ടില്‍ ചികില്‍സയിലാണ്.എന്തായാലും എന്‍റെയും കുടുംബത്തിന്‍റെയും ആശംസയും പ്രാര്‍ത്ഥനയും മുരുകനോടോപ്പമുണ്ട്.
Hello Murugan. Heard about you quite recently. Searching searching.. I finally reached here.
Will call you soon. I need your help.
In the mean time.. can I use the matter on this page for an e book a friend is bringing out?
I think more and more people should know about you, and all you do.
There must be a lot of unaware people like me.
Wishing you the very best in all you do.. and heartfelt prayers and blessings.
Would like to join hands.. in my small way at least in some of what you do.
At least once.. and more if I can. Else I’d be a sorry word for a human being..
With a lot of respect..
-usha
I don’t think you’ve been here recently. I hope you wont mind if I borrow the above picture and article.
That needs to reach as many people as it can.
will surely get in touch.
take care..
പ്രിയപ്പെട്ട അനിയ …നിന്റെ കൈകള്‍ ഈസ്വരന്റെത് കൂടിയാണ് ..ജന്മാന്തര പുണ്യമായി നീ ഇവിടെ ഉണ്ടാകുമ്പോള്‍ ഒരു അനാഥകണ്ണും നനയില്ലല്ലോ ..എന്റെ പ്രാര്‍ഥനകള്‍ പൂക്കളായി നിന്റെ വഴികളില്‍ എന്നുമുണ്ടാവും!!!
Dear Murugan cheta,
Words are not enough to give wishes to you. I am extending my prayers to you.
I did my post graduation in sociology to understand more about society, but you realize each and every beats of society through the tears and smiles of poor people in society.
Definitly, you have God’s grace.
I met you 2 years ago, when you arrived our college as our guest.
We will meet again . Extend my full support to you. God bless you.
Thank you so much. Always welcome to Street Light rescue home kakkanad. contact us on mobile 09846051098
പ്രിയപ്പെട്ട മുരുഗൻ ചേട്ടന് ,
എൻറെ പേര് അനിൽകുമാർ എന്നാണ്(ചേട്ടൻ എന്നെ ഓർക്കാൻ വഴിയില്ല),ഞാൻ കാക്കനാട് ഉള്ള സുനിൽ ചേട്ടന്റെ കൂടെ ആണ് തെരുവോരത്തിൽ വന്നത് . അവിടുത്തെ കാഴ്ചകൾ എന്ന്നെ വല്ലതാക്കി… ഞാനും സുനിൽ ചേട്ടനും 2 ദിവസം കുറച്ചു ഭക്ഷണം അവിടെ കൊണ്ട് തന്നു… അതുകൊണ്ട് ഒന്നും ആവില്ല എന്ന് അറിയാമെങ്കിലും …
ഹൃദയം നുറുങ്ങുന്ന കാഴ്ചകൾ കണ്ടു… ഇനിയും ഇതുപോലെ സമൂഹത്തിൽ വേദന അനുഭവിക്കുന്നവർക്ക് താങ്ങും തണലുമായി നില്ക്കാൻ ചേട്ടന് ആയുർ ആരോഗ്യ സൌഖ്യങ്ങൾ നേരുന്നു…. അതോടൊപ്പം എന്നാൽ കഴിയുന്ന സഹായവും ഞാൻ ഉറപ്പു തരുന്നു…
സ്നേഹത്തോടെ
അനിൽകുമാർ 09446712852
thank you so much for your kind support
