Sangthankima

UNSUNG HEROES

Sangthankima (born 18 October 1960) is a prominent humanitarian and social worker from Mizoram, India. He is best known as the founder of Thutak Nunpuitu Team (TNT), a voluntary organization established on 14 November 1988 in Champhai. Initially focused on rehabilitating alcoholics, TNT has since expanded its services to include orphan care, education, health services, and addiction rehabilitation across multiple centers in Mizoram.

Sangthankima's dedication to social service has earned him several accolades. In 2014, he received the Mother Teresa Award for Social Justice and the Mizo Award. In 2024, he was honored with the Padma Shri, India's fourth-highest civilian award, for his exceptional contributions to social work, particularly in the welfare of children and marginalized communities. Despite limited formal education, Sangthankima's commitment to service and his impact on society have made him a respected figure in Mizoram. He continues to reside in Aizawl with his wife, Lalṭhakimi, and their four children.
