Thevarparampil Kunjachan was an Indian Syro-Malabar Catholic priest born in 1891 in Ramapuram, Kerala. Known affectionately as Kunjachan, he dedicated his long ministry to the spiritual and material welfare of marginalized Dalit communities. Rather than relying on complex preaching, he focused on charitable works and living simply alongside those he served. His lifelong commitment to the downtrodden earned him a reputation for holiness, leading to his eventual recognition as a blessed in the Catholic Church.
