On the occasion of Independence Day yesterday (15 August), youths from a Madhya Pradesh village in Indore district gifted a new house to the family of a Border Security Force (BSF) soldier Mohanlal Suner, who was martyred in the line of duty in Tripura in 1992, reports The New Indian Express.
Suner’s widow, Raju Bai, and her two sons, had been living in a dilapidated dwelling for the past many years. During Rakshabandhan last year, around 20 or so youths pledged to gather funds to provide a new home to the fallen soldier’s family.
The group was able to gather the amount in just three months and construction proceeded smoothly over the next eight months. The youths now plan on getting the government school in the village renamed in Suner’s honour.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
