For the 9 year old Rubina Ali and 10 year old Azaruddin Mohammed Ismail, this day must be a memorable one.
Keeping in tradition that the Indians do not forget (timely) those who make the country proud, it was Sonia Gandhi who expressed her desire to encourage the young children who were part of the Oscar winning, Danny Boyle’s film, Slumdog Millionaire.
Accordingly, today, the 19th if March, these two children were led to the residence of Sonia Gandhi at 10 Janpath. The children who were fans of Gandhi conveyed their desire to sing the song Jai Ho for her. Incidentally this song has been selected as the campaign song of Congress.
This meeting could be lined up since the children were in Delhi to participate in the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion week as flag bearers for Ashima and Leena Singh.
