Jalandhar's three-year-old Harshita is in a desperate need of money for a critical heart surgery. Her father has staked everything to get her treated, and save her life.

The three-year-old has a serious heart problem, which is not curable in India. A vein which sends back clean blood to the heart never developed in her. The illness is getting worse with age.

Harshita's father works for an insurance firm. He has been to numerous hospitals in India. Specialist heart surgeons have told him treatment is possible only in the US, and it will cost about seventy lakh rupees. Amit doesn't have the money and he is asking you for help.

Little Harshita is, of course, playful and carefree like any toddler, not aware of her condition.

To help her, you can send cheques to her father. Here are the details:

Amit Luthra, Bank A/c No. 001701562005 ICICI Bank

Online Transfer code: IFSC ICIC0000273
