This is not the first time that Gambhir has come out in support of a social cause.
Earlier, Gambhir had decided to support the children of the 25 CRPF men, who got killed in a Maoist attack in Chattisgarh’s Sukma district in April this year.
Gambhir said his foundation will take care of the entire education expenses of the children of the martyrs. He showed his emotion and caring other side in a series of tweets.
