We came to know about Mr. Parameswaran,
a 60 years old man, who is suffering from various ailments and also had a fall
recently due to which he suffered a fracture. Doctors advised immediate
operation on his spinal cord for his recovery. Since he would not be able to
bear the Operation (being an orphan and
inmate of New Life Charitable Trust) cost of Rs. 32,000/-, we provided Rs. 10,000/- as partial amount
towards the operation cost. Since then, he has been operated upon and the
