Many household tend to look at the daughters as liabilities and often considered a sign of badluck.

In a contrast to such families who think this way, stands Bibi Parkash Kaur, who was herself abandoned 60 years ago herself and now she adopts those who are shunned by their families.

She has dedicated her life since 1993 to the noble but onerous mission of rescuing unwanted and unclaimed newborn girls and giving them a secure home and future.

Siya was only a few hours old when she was found in a drain, wrapped in a black polythene bag. Reva was a newborn when her parents decided to dump her near the highway off Kapurthala. Razia and Rabiya were just a few days old when they were discovered in the fields outside Jalandhar.

‘Unique Home’ welcomed every kid with warmth and affection. Unique Home is run by a trust named after Bhai Ghanayya Ji, a disciple of Guru Gobind Singh. The trust aims to raise these children as healthy individuals and arm them with all the social skills and educational qualifications that they need to face life on their own terms.

She says “They are my own children,” the lady says. “They are never made to feel like abandoned children.”

Under her care & tutelage, they are well equipped to face the world and live a dignified life. Even after they are married, her responsibility doesn’t end there , she continues to look after them even after marriage.

She has managed to touch the lives of many! If only Prakash Kaur’s selfless spirit would rub off on society at large.
