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.

food, clothes, toys and books. They are now a happy family.
