When Mehboob started this project,
he had to work very hard to bring education to the children. After which gradually children started joining him and in these years he made 5 thousand children from the city a part of his campaign. He formed a voluntary organization Maa Tujhe Salaam, in which children are given education from class 1 to 5.
