Renowned sand artist Sudarsan Pattnaik also came up with a beautiful sand art at the Puri beach in Odisha to observe the birth anniversary of Mother Teresa.

Mother Teresa was the founder of the Order of the Missionaries of Charity, a Roman Catholic congregation of women dedicated to the poor, particularly to those in India, that opened numerous centres serving the blind, the aged, and the disabled.

Mother Teresa was the epitome of peace, love and strength.
