Relentless is the perfect word to describe social crusader Renu Kapoor. A chartered accountant by profession, she uses her voice to create awareness about several social issues that plague our society. Her long-running digital campaign #DignityInDeath is one such example.It was a deeply personal experience in 2017 that prompted her to launch this project. After witnessing the deplorable condition of an electric crematorium — when her chauffer passed away — the 64-year-old realised the emotional turmoil that families have to bear when the mortal bodies of their deceased dear ones are treated “like carcasses in a butcher shop”. It took thousands of phone calls and several years, but Kapoor successfully persuaded the government to grant over ₹2 crore for the revamp of the dilapidated morgue at a Mumbai hospital. She also works towards handholding small-time women entrepreneurs. Many artisans of Indian crafts have also benefited from her work as a part of the NGO Paramparik Karigar.
