  1. Hi Guys,

    I was wondering whether you might have the characters for “strength from King Raja of the elephants” or something similar.

    Thanks!

    • Here is the text:

      हाथियों के राजा की शक्ति

      This exactly means “The strength of the king of elephants”.

    • संघर्ष के बिना कोई प्रगति नहीं है
