Recently, even a late beggar from Rajasthan made the headlines after the custodians of her live-long savings donated them to the families of the Pulwama martyrs. In Chhattisgarh, a food vendor offered Rs 10 discount on a chicken leg piece to those customers who said "Pakistan Murdabad".

Also in Rajasthan, a youth got names of 71 fallen Indian soldiers, including those in Pulwama, on his body. The atmosphere is indeed charged up with nationalist feelings.

Now, owners of a textile mill in Surat, Gujarat, have taken to manufacturing sarees with photos of the Pulwama martyrs imprinted on them and said the profit gained from selling the clothes will be donated to the affected families.

We'll donate the entire profit to families of the jawans," the mill's director Manish was quoted as saying by ANI.
