NEW DELHI:

An Indian Muslim pilot was appointed the guardian of two orphaned Hindu children following a decision by Delhi High Court, according to sources.

Terming the move a ‘noble endeavour’, the Delhi High Court appointed Zaheer as the guardian of twins Ayush and Prarthana under the Hindu Minority & Guardianship Act.

The parents of the twins, Praveen Dayal and Kavita Dayal, died in 2012 and Zaheer was appointed to take care of the children since.
