An elderly beggar named Nalini Sharma, a regular presence at the Ambe Mata Temple at Bajrangarh in Ajmer used to saved up money and deposit it in a bank. When she passed way in August 2018, the trustees whom she had entrusted her savings knew her dying wish, to put her savings towards the good of the nation.

“Despite the fact that her savings came from begging, she wanted it to be of some use to the country and hence, we considered it to be used for the kin of the CRPF jawans killed in the Pulwama attack.”
