Dr Abdul Rehman Vanoo Helps Daily Workers In Bollywood With Necessities

Dr Abdul Rehman Vanoo Helps Daily Workers In Bollywood With Necessities

डॉ अब्दुल रहमान वनू बॉलीवुड के दैनिक श्रमिकों को ज़रूरी चीज़ों के साथ मदद कर रहे हैं

डॉ अब्दुल रहमान वनू,  दादासाहेब फाल्के फिल्म फाउंडेशन के महासचिव, के रूप में चुने गए हैं। वह ईमानदारी, कड़ी मेहनत और उत्कृष्टता के व्यक्ति हैं। हिंदी फिल्म उद्योग के तकनीशियनों के उत्थान के लिए उनके पास हमेशा एक नजरिया था और उन्होंने उस दिशा में बड़े प्रयास किए हैं।

हम सभी जानते हैं कि फिल्म जगत में दैनिक वेतन भोगी कर्मचारियों, विशेष रूप से तकनीशियनों के लिए तालाबंदी और महामारी बहुत कठिन साबित हुई है। मुंबई के बाहरी इलाकों जैसे विरार और पालघर में भी इस अवधि के दौरान जरूरतमंदों को दैनिक आवश्यक सामान और धन भेजने के लिए डॉ वनू जिम्मेदार थे। उन्होंने कहा, “फिल्म इंडस्ट्री सिर्फ अभिनेताओं, निर्माताओं, लेखकों और निर्देशकों से नहीं भरी है। हालांकि ज्यादातर पुरस्कार समारोह में स्पॉटलाइट हमेशा उन पर रहती है, हमें लगता है कि तकनीशियन जैसे स्पॉटबॉय, कैमरामैन और लाखों लोग शामिल हैं जो दैनिक मजदूरी के लिए सेट पर काम करते हैं। और एक फिल्म और  फाइनल प्रोडक्ट बनाने में भी योगदान दे रहे हैं। इसलिए, हमने यह सुनिश्चित किया कि वे इस अवधि के दौरान पीड़ित न हों। हमने मुंबई के विभिन्न हिस्सों में दैनिक आवश्यक वस्तुओं की आपूर्ति की। ”

डॉ वनू ने मुंबई पुलिस की मदद भी की है और लॉकडाउन के दौरान उन्हें जरूरी सामान मुहैया कराया है। मुंबई पुलिस ने कलिना, सांताक्रूज़ में एक कवारांटेन सेंटर स्थापित किया था, यहां डॉ वनू ने उन्हें कई सेवाएं प्रदान करने में मदद प्रदान की। डॉ वनू के संगठन द्वारा बोरीवली, धारावी और कई अन्य क्षेत्रों में दैनिक आवश्यक चीजें उपलब्ध कराई गई हैं। उन्होंने कहा, “कई लोगों ने अपनी नौकरी खो दी और हमने उन्हें काम और भोजन देने का फैसला किया। और यह केवल मुंबई तक ही सीमित नहीं था। हमने ये सुविधाएं और दैनिक आवश्यक चीज़ें दिल्ली, पुणे और भारत के कई अन्य शहरों में प्रदान कीं। हमने इस पर शोध भी किया कि लॉकडाउन के दौरान लोग मानसिक स्वास्थ्य से कैसे निपटते हैं। और इसके अलावा, हम स्वास्थ्य सुविधाओं को मेंटेन रखना और दैनिक वेतन भोगी कर्मचारियों को रोजगार देना भी जारी रखते हैं। सरकार भी हमें अच्छा समर्थन दे रही है।

दादासाहेब फाउंडेशन के दैनिक वेतन भोगी कर्मचारी भी बुरी तरह प्रभावित हुए। डॉ वनू ने कहा, “हमने इन श्रमिकों के पते की एक विशाल सूची तय्यार की और  पूरे स्टाफ को भोजन, दैनिक आवश्यक वस्तुएं, किराने का सामान और चिकित्सा सहायता प्रदान की। नालासोपारा, मीरा रोड और कई अन्य क्षेत्रों में, हमने दैनिक आवश्यक सेवाओं का परिवहन किया। चूंकि हम मुंबई पुलिस के साथ काम कर रहे थे, हमारे पास विभिन्न क्षेत्रों की यात्रा करने के लिए एक पास था और इसलिए, पुलिस विभाग को बहुत धन्यवाद, क्योंकि हम दूसरों की मदद करने में इस पास का उपयोग कर सकते हैं। ”

 

इसके अलावा, डॉ वनू इन तकनीशियनों के कौशल के उत्थान की दिशा में भी काम कर रहे हैं। उन्होंने कहा, “इन श्रमिकों में से अधिकांश अपनी दैनिक रोटी कमाने के लिए शहर में आए हैं। वे शिक्षित नहीं हैं। इसलिए, हम उन्हें आगे की पढ़ाई करने और उन्हें आत्मनिर्भर बनाने के लिए प्रेरित करते हैं। हम उन्हें विशेष कौशल सीखने के लिए भी प्रोत्साहित करते हैं, जिससे उन्हें फिल्म निर्माण की प्रक्रिया में मदद मिलेगी। मुझे लगता है कि यह हमारे देश और फिल्म उद्योग के लोगों के लिए महत्वपूर्ण है। “
