Ladwa/ New Delhi, May 21, 2026
: KNAM Group, through its CSR arm Smt. Krishna  Goel Foundation, organized a free eye camp for around 600 citizens at Baba Bansi  Wala Vridhaashram in Ladwa, making essential eye care accessible to people in and  around the town. Over 150 citizens are scheduled for cataract operations. To  ensure continuous care, a dedicated vehicle has been deployed for critical  emergencies, alongside the planned installation of lifts at the Baba Bansi Wala  Vridhaashram in Ladwa to restore independence and mobility for our beloved  elders. Additionally, a fully equipped library is also established at Vridhaashram,  creating a supportive learning space where children can study using their own  educational materials 

The camp was aimed at reaching those who often do not have easy access to basic  eye care. Residents from nearby areas came forward for free eye check-ups, and  those found to need cataract surgery or other eye-related medical attention were  guided for further treatment, including free cataract operations. The camp was  conducted under the guidance of Dr. Param Shiv Gaur, MBBS, DOMS, Consultant  Eye Surgeon.  

For many families, timely eye care can make a meaningful difference, improving not  just health but also confidence, independence, and quality of life. The camp reflected  KNAM Group’s continued focus on improving access to healthcare where it is needed  most. 

This was not the Group’s first such outreach initiative. Previous camps have  benefited more than 2,500 individuals, highlighting the growing need for accessible  and community-driven healthcare support in the region.

It is hoped that such initiatives will continue to bring support,  dignity, and relief to those who need it the most,” said Mr. Amit Goel, Founder and  Managing Director, KNAM Group.  

Alongside its health-related work, KNAM Group is also supporting children from  marginalised backgrounds through its ongoing social programmes. At present, more  than 500 children are benefiting from these efforts.  

In 2025, to celebrate its 15th anniversary, premium Basmati rice miller and exporter  KNAM Foods hosted a landmark, week-long community celebration at its flagship  plant in Ladwa, Haryana. The event culminated in an unprecedented community feast  for 50,000 local members, symbolizing deep gratitude to the town where founder and  Managing Director, Mr. Amit Goel was born and raised. This first-of-its-kind initiative  in the region served to honor both the local populace and the company’s dedicated  workforce, fulfilling a long-held dream of driving regional development and  employment.  

Smt. Krishna Goel Foundation continues to advance its mission of supporting  communities through impactful social initiatives. This camp, sponsored by KNAM  Foods and supported by Bharat Vikas Parishad, stands as a testament to collaborative  efforts towards social welfare and community development. We extend our heartfelt  gratitude to Bharat Vikas Parishad for their valuable contribution in organizing and  executing this initiative successfully.
