They were coiled around a Drum Furnace (Tandoor) of a small dhaba. Even the Tandoor had gone cold. The volunteers took no time in covering them with the warm blankets.
Another emotional moment was when the volunteers went ahead on the Passport Office Road in Kaushambi. They found a teenager pulling a rickshaw in just a shirt without proper woolen. When the volunteers clothed him with a thick jacket, the pleasure of warmth was brimming into his eyes. The boy did not hesitate in asking for a blanket too. It was given to him immediately and was reciprocated with deep obligation and a wide smile.
This noble task ended with the utmost satisfaction, unforgettable experiences and the countless blessings. The blankets and jackets were bought with the money donated by the students, faculty and staff members of ITS, Ghaziabad
