Detecting COVID-19 through voice samples
Applause and acknowledgement matters, but not when one is on death bed, in debt and in urgent need of medical and financial assistance. Sharif Chacha of Ayodhya needs no introduction.
Not just to those who live near his tin-shade dilapidated house located in the Mohalla Khirki Ali Beg, but even to those who have come across the incredible story of his selfless service on social media platforms. The old man also featured in the TV show Satyamev Jayate hosted by actor Aamir Khan.

For the last 27 years, he has been cremating unclaimed bodies and performing their last rites, out of his own pocket. A service he has rendered to society sans any expectations, without any government support. A cause he has taken up without any communal corruption. Kya Hindu-Kya Musalman would be his usual reply to people of his area.
