For her social work, Palak’s name is also recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records and Limca Book of World Records. Here is a special conversation with him:
It is said about you that you are very kind and have been working to help people since childhood. Where did it start?
It started when I was quite young. I probably had this feeling in my mind for four-five years. Whenever I met a child who was less privileged, I used to wish that there was some way by which I could help him. This turmoil kept going on in my mind that if I have toys then why don’t the children living on the footpath have them? If I am living a good life then why can’t the children who earn money by clearing land in trains live such a comfortable life. I feel that singing has been given to me as a gift from God. Because of this I can help someone, improve their life. I can even save someone’s life. I first launched a campaign for the soldiers of Kargil. Then went to the shops and collected money. After that I helped a heart-sick child. When both these campaigns became successful, more children came asking for help. By doing so, now the figure of three thousand has been crossed.
It is said that when you do good to others, you also get the results. Do you feel that way?
I feel it every moment. I feel that whatever success I have achieved till date, whatever blessings I have received, have all been because of him. Because when the parents of these children come to meet, they give a lot of blessings. I think a lot of people sing and many sing better than me. But I have always received so much love, so much affection, it is only because of the prayers of those children.
What are your plans in the coming time?
Right now there are 455 children on my waiting list. My goal is to get these children operated first. Apart from this, there is also planning of a hospital where children will be treated for free. Since all of these children are heart patients, this mission has, in a way, become a mission of the heart. The plan is to take this forward.
