One of the leading causes of infant mortality in India is the high incidence of congenital heart disease among young children. It is estimated that over 240,000 children are born in this country with a heart disease. The remedial care and interventions remain grossly inadequate and beyond the reach of many poor families. 
 
This unique and absolutely free Child Heart Care initiative has been set up under the able initiative of a proven social entrepreneur Sri. C. Sreenivas. He has an impeccable track record of phenomenal social projects in the fields of Healthcare, Education, Drinking Water Supply and Rural Service Initiatives for over 40 years. He is a very good friend of mine and I have known him personally for decades and it is a matter of great pride and privilege to be associated with his new initiative the Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Centre for Child Heart Care.
 
The Trust has now two large hospitals dedicated to the alleviations of the poor families afflicted with this tragedy. The first one was set up in November 2012 in Naya Raipur, Chhattisgarh and the second hospital was set up in November 2016 at Baghola, Palwal District, Haryana.
