People came forward to help the elderly

After the news of the demolition of the old man's slum, people are reaching out to help him. Some are bringing food for the dogs and some are bringing warm clothes for an elderly woman.

He said that in this severe cold where people are finding it difficult to leave the house, this woman is helping so many stray dogs by sheltering them. People should help them.
