Over the past 10 months, the second-grade student saved up his pocket money and small contributions from family members to donate it to the Indian Army.

One user said, “No matter how much he has donated, I appreciate his ideology and his efforts. He made his parents proud at a very young age.” Another comment read, “Great step by the lovely child. He is an inspiration for others to follow.”
