Anudhinam.Org is published in the lines of a daily Newspaper and I wonder how the organisers/Editors are able to collect the information/News from different places that took place on a day and publish it on the very next day. My deep sense of appreciation belongs to them and pray Shriman Narayanan to give them good health to continue this service to the Vaishnava Cult. Pranams
