The Ramakrishna Mission Sevashrama, Lucknow, the local
branch centre of the world famous Ramakrishna Mission, P.O.
Belur Math, District Howrah, West Bengal, was started in a small
way in 1914, for humanitarian work, by a band of young people
inspired by the lofty teachings of Swami Vivekananda, the great
patriot saint of India.
They helped its growth with years of selfless
work, and gradually its activities of social and religious services
went on increasing. At first it acquired a plot of land at Ahata
Gungey Nawab, Aminabad, Lucknow and constructed its own
premises through the munificence of the charity minded local
people and devotees. By 1925, its activities had further increased
when in that year the Sevashrama was affiliated to the Ramakrishna
Mission, a religious and philanthropic organization founded by
Swami Vivekananda, at Belur Math, District Howrah (West Bengal);
this Mission is registered under the Societies Act XXI of 1860, as
revised according the West Bengal Act XXVI of 1961.
In the post
- independence period, the accommodation and space available
at Aminabad was found to be much too inadequate for meeting
public demands for its services, particularly for the Mission's
dispensary. The Ramakrishna Mission Sevashrama, hereinafter called
Sevashrama, in 1961-62 with the benign help of the State
Government secured allotment of the present plot of land in the
Trans-Gomti Area for establishing the Vivekananda Polyclinic and
thereby for enhanced medical and health, educational, religious
and cultural services.
The Polyclinic scheme was a bold and
ambitious one designed for setting up a Medical Centre of a new
type with up-to-date modern diagnostic facilities to serve mainly
the outpatients with liberal domiciliary medical services. The Branch
Centre at Aminabad was shifted to the new site at the Vivekananda
Puram in January 1967. The massive and extensive Vivekananda Polyclinic building for the outpatients came up with financial
assistance received from Government and helpful cooperation and
support from all quarters. The new building was formally dedicated
for public service on 18th February 1970. From June 1970 twelve
well equipped Outpatient Departments started functioning.
