The H.H Rajdadiji Badan Kanwar Medical
Trust was founded by His Highness The Maharaja Gaj Singh II in
March,1972, in the memory of his revered grand-mother to
contribute to the amelioration of the many health problems faced by the
peoples of Marwar, given the stark insufficiency of general medical
facilities. The Trust was conceived in view of the charitable
disposition of the Rajdadiji Sahiba and the esteem in which
she was held not
only by the Ruling House of Jodhpur but by the entire population of
Marwar. It was in the
fitness of things that the main aim of the Trust was the rendering of Medical & Health care to the masses, particularly to the weaker
sections of society, irrespective of caste, creed, race and religion. This is the guiding spirit of the
Trust and this its goal.
