Thank you @FarOutAkhtar sir for listening to our appeal for a homeless Shiv Mandir Pujari and taking full responsibility to build his home.
We are amazed to see your dedication past many months for regular updates of construction. The family won’t sleep outside in cold anymore. pic.twitter.com/J1R5Kav45d— Divyanshu Upadhyay (@divyanshu_hope)
