In a heartwarming gesture, Gautam Adani, the Chairman of Adani Group, has come forward to support a disabled girl from a small village in India. The girl, named Lovely, hails from Kandhrapur village in Uttar Pradesh and has been facing financial difficulties in pursuing her education and treatment.
What Happened: Lovely, who has a crooked left leg and hand, has been living with her elderly grandparents since her mother’s demise and her father’s remarriage.
The family has been struggling to meet her expenses and provide her with an education. In light of this, the Adani Foundation, under the leadership of Gautam Adani, has stepped in to help.
Adani took to X, formerly Twitter, to announce the foundation’s support for Lovely and her family, covering her treatment and education costs.
Adani, a prominent Indian industrialist, is the founder and chairman of the Adani Group, a multinational conglomerate with interests in various sectors, including energy, resources, logistics, agribusiness, real estate, financial services, and defense.

Why It Matters: Adani’s philanthropic gesture comes at a time when his business empire is making significant strides.
Earlier in April, Adani’s renewable energy arm, Adani Green Energy Limited (AGEL), announced plans to invest a whopping ₹1.5 lakh crore ($18 billion) in a renewable energy park in Khavda, Gujarat.
This park, set to be the largest of its kind in India, will have the capacity to generate 30 gigawatts of clean electricity.
The Adani Foundation, the community engagement arm of the Adani Group, has been active in the core areas of education, health, sustainable livelihood, skill development, and community infrastructure since 1996.
