A THOUGHTFUL GESTURE

Actor Aakanksha Singh started selling her wardrobe online to raise funds. Recently, she took to Instagram to express how we forget about police personnel who are doing their duty in these difficult times. To make their lives a little bit easier, she distribute­d water bottles and buttermilk to these Covid-19 heroes in Jaipur, Rajasthan.

HOW IS THE JOSH?

Admiral Karambir Singh, Chief of the Naval Staff was the chief guest at POP of the 140th batch of the National Defence Academy (NDA). He went to visit his old squad, Hunter squadron, a day prior to the event. He announced his desire to do push-ups and when asked how many, he gleefully announced ‘As many.’ Nothing demonstrat­es the NDA spirit better.

DANCE OF LIFE

In a video that has been putting a smile on everyone’s faces, a 64-year-old former Covid-19 patient is seen celebratin­g his moment of joy by dancing, with the medical staff cheering him on, as he gets discharged after recovering from a hospital in Gurugram.

POLICE HUMESHA AAPKE SAATH

Eager to cheer and celebrate his granddaugh­ter’s birthday but unable to reach her due to the pandemic, Ram Naiyar was assisted by Delhi Police officials from Prashant Vihar. They delivered cake and toys to the little girl.

BEING SOCIALLY RESPONSIBL­E

Gurugram Police, along with its citizens, have come together to feed poor families in the region. For this, they have created a special police team who are involved in gathering informatio­n about chemists, hospitals and the most vulnerable families. Citizens have been donating dry ration to the most affected.

CAPTURING LIFE WITH ART

Our 79-year-old reader, Narendra Kumar, has been utilising his time in the lockdown to indulge in his interests of photograph­y and art. Kumar has shared this beautiful picture he clicked of birds sitting atop a tree branch. Sighting birds is indeed a matter of joy!
