“Jo loog bahir say aatay hain un se farq nahi parta jab kay ankhian naal takia par ziada umaal kartay hain. Dekha Deeiakhe ziada assar hota hai”.

 “When people come from outside, it does not feel good. But if we see the things with our eyes, and try them practically, and see some people practicing them, this has a good effect on people.”

“The NGO has gone. Today we are on our own. We are still sharing the information. A few days ago there was a birth in my neighborhood. The father came to me at 11 o’clock at night and asked me for a new blade to cut the cord. Whatever we have learned from these PD sessions we are acting upon it, and guiding others to do so.”
