Dr. Omendra Ratnu is a passionate ENT surgeon (Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist) from Jaipur, Rajasthan, who has spent over two decades healing patients in his own hospital. But his life goes far beyond the operating theater—he is a writer, historian, songwriter, singer, music composer, and a tireless activist deeply committed to Hindu dharma, history, and the welfare of persecuted minorities.
Born into a proud Kshatriya family in Jaipur, Omendra grew up surrounded by stories of valor and culture. His grandfather was a renowned Rajasthani poet whose verses instilled in him a profound love for his land and heritage. His father, a respected nephrologist, carried the same fierce pride in Hindu identity. These roots shaped a man who couldn’t just treat bodies—he felt called to protect an entire civilization’s soul.
By day, Dr. Ratnu performs delicate surgeries with precision. By night and on weekends, he pours his energy into Nimittekam, the NGO he founded to help rehabilitate Hindu and Sikh refugees fleeing persecution in Pakistan (and sometimes Bangladesh). He provides them shelter, legal aid, medical care, and a path to rebuild their lives in India. Through Dharmansh Foundation and his writings, he advocates for their rights under frameworks like the CAA, often sharing heart-wrenching stories of families forced to convert or flee under threat.
Imagine this scene from one of his field visits:
Dr. Ratnu kneels in the scorching Jodhpur sun beside a weary Pakistani Hindu family who just crossed the border. A mother clutches her child, tears streaming.
Refugee mother (voice trembling): “Doctor sahab, they said ‘convert or die.’ We left everything—our home, our fields. Now where do we go?”
Dr. Ratnu (gently, eyes steady): “Beta, you are home now. Maa Bharati never abandons her children. We’ve arranged medical check-ups, papers, and a small place to stay. You won’t sleep hungry tonight. Jai Mewad!”
He wipes the child’s forehead, smiles, and turns to his team: “Let’s get them to the shelter before the heat worsens. No one should feel like a refugee in their own punya bhoomi.”
His passion for history led him to author the powerful book “Maharanas: A Thousand-Year War for Dharma” (also in Hindi as “Maharana: Sahasra Varshon ka Dharmayuddha”). In it, he chronicles the Sisodiya Rajputs of Mewar—especially Maharana Pratap—and their centuries-long resistance against invasions. He challenges what he sees as distorted narratives in textbooks, arguing that these warriors sacrificed generations to protect dharma and Bharat.
In podcasts and interviews, he speaks with fire:
Interviewer: “Why dedicate so much to history when you’re a busy surgeon?”
Dr. Ratnu (with quiet intensity): “Because forgetting our warriors means losing the reason we still exist as Hindus. Maharana Pratap didn’t fight for land—he fought so that someday a doctor like me could operate freely in Jaipur, not under someone else’s flag. If I don’t tell their story, who will?”
Beyond medicine and activism, he’s a creative soul—composing songs that echo Rajasthan’s deserts and Mewar’s forts, always weaving in themes of resilience and faith.
Today, Dr. Omendra Ratnu balances scalpel, pen, and purpose. He’s not just saving lives in the OT—he’s fighting to save a civilization’s memory and dignity, one refugee, one book, one truth at a time. A modern-day warrior in a white coat.
