This is the photo of Lala Hansraj Guta who along with his father were devoted to Shri Nathji.
The father of Shri Hans Raj Gupta, the mayor of Delhi had become an ardent admirer of Shri Nathji.
He and a Chief Engineer frequented Shri Nathji's sermons in Mussoorie. The effect on him was so profound that he came to Shri Nathji and said to him: "My house in Delhi is always waiting for you. Whenever you come there, please stay with us."
Many years later, Shri Nathji visited the residence of Shri Hans Raj Gupta. His father was no longer alive by that time. A lecture was arranged in the garden of the house, and Shri Nathji blessed Hans Raj Gupta like he had blessed his father..
