Incredible work by Vartika Nanda! Nice to know that Tinka Tinka is now travelling to South India too. Saw the images of the book release published in Sakal and Lokmat Samachar on You Tube. Imagine a journey from Tihar has traveled so far. Well done Tinka Tinka! Waiting to hear the new song written by Vartika Nanda on prisons. #Vartikananda #prisoners #human_rights#humanity
