The effect of the Uri attack which claimed the lives of 18 unsuspecting jawans are yet to leave the minds and hearts of the people of India.

Touted as one of the worst attacks on the Indian army, it has left numerous mourning families in its wake.

But, as luck would have it, one businessman from Gujarat is trying to bring about some silver lining while the entire country adapts to the loss.

Fourty-seven-year-old Mahesh Savani, a businessman from the Surat district from Gujarat is offering to sponsor the education of the children of all the 18 Uri martyrs.

Elaborating on what made him take this decision, Savani said, "I saw a girl of our Indian soldier crying on the television saying that her father had told her to study hard and become successful. At that very moment, I decided to sponsor the children of the martyrs killed in Uri attack,"

His realty group PP Savani is going to offer free education for all these children. The group is also open to providing free accommodation to the children who wish to study with the PP Savani International School.

This is not the first time Savani has been involved in such noble work. In the past, he has also organised mass weddings for over 100 underprivileged girls.
