NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI... There is no image of God.
NA SAMDRSE tisthati rupam asya - His form is not to be seen, no one sees him with the eyes... (Svetasvatara upanishad 4:20)
The images that U worship is not God according to VEDAS..
How come u guys waste a lot of money on that image.. which is motionless and lifeless..

Humans are an intelligent creature which God created, If they use their intellect in finding the TRUE GOD ... God guides them to the TRUTH... please try to search and dont just follow what U follow blindly without logic and reason.

The passion of young Ms Tabassum and Social Working of today, particularly, gives me lot of hope. It almost feels like the political class wants to bring down India while the people are so hard working and committed to nation building.

Congratulation Miss. Way to go.

PS: Media has been compromised and fake news factories churn out crap daily. Thanks CD for bringing this news to readers.

CONGRATULATIONS.

Mrs.Tabassum's service for humanity is highly commendable.She looks after HIV & AIDS effected children with compassion like mother without expecting anything in returns.

She is the alumni of JF managed Green View PU womens college at Derealakette.

She deserve for more prestigious awards even like "Padma Shri" for her selfless and sincere services for the society and the nation.

All the best.
