Jeet Pal’s joie de vivre is infectious and visible even in a wide-angle lens. He speaks on speed. His never-ending stories are invariably about a life spent in social work. He’s enabled 555 girls to be educated because he could not get one himself. He’s proud of the fact that most often, he’s helped people that are from diverse religious and cultural backgrounds. Communal harmony matters to him and he takes it very personally.
