Neeraj and Kiran have been adopted by Mrs and Mr Sharma. They had no

              children of their own even though they had been married for several years.
              Both of them missed having children.

              Many children lose their parents and
              became orphans because of flood
              in a village. Mrs & Mr Sharma

              volunteered to provide a
              home and a family to
              two little children from
              that village – Neeraj

              and Kiran. They were
              legally adopted after Mr
              Sharma completed all the

              formalities with the
              orphanage.

              The life of the Sharma family has
              changed.  Mrs  Sharma  showers  lots  of  love  on  the  two  children  who  have
              almost  forgotten  the  trauma  of  the  flood.  Mr  Sharma  is  a  loving  father.

              Neeraj  and  Kiran  have  been  admitted  to  a  good  school.  They  have  good
              food, clothes, toys and books. They are now a happy family.
