Free, round-the-clock care for animals in distress.
To provide shelter, medical treatment and rehabilitation, and to build lasting infrastructure and community awareness around animal welfare.
A not-for-profit institution built to rescue animals in distress, restore them to health and give them a safe, dignified life.
Shri Hastkeshar Panjrapole was formed with a single purpose: to rescue animals in distress and restore them to health.
Today, with more than 1,400 animals under shelter, that founding vision has taken firm shape. The Panjrapole is dedicated to the memory of Late Shri Hastimalji Ghamandiramji Bokadia, the patriarch of the Bokadia family, in recognition of his lifelong commitment to animal welfare, and was founded by Shri Babulal H. Bokadia.

To provide shelter, medical treatment and rehabilitation, and to build lasting infrastructure and community awareness around animal welfare.
Clinical attention, safe shelter, rescue capability and independent oversight are brought together to create meaningful, sustained impact.
In keeping with the founder’s values of compassion and selfless service, the Foundation is extending its humanitarian mission beyond animals. As part of this expanding work, it will establish and operate a care facility for destitute, homeless and mentally challenged individuals, providing shelter, food, medical treatment, rehabilitation services and skill development.
