    :ideaI was puzzled and more of tears rolled over my cheeks as I was watching the below news on BBC this afternoon.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/8299065.stm

    At 16 years old, Babar Ali must be the youngest headmaster in the world. He's a teenager who is in charge of teaching hundreds of students in his family's backyard, where he runs classes for poor children from his village.
    The story of this young man from Murshidabad in West Bengal is a remarkable tale of the desire to learn amid the direst poverty..BBC News

    It makes anyone watching this video think twice before we complaint of anything we dont get, nor feel satisfied with.

    I at this moment of time silently thank god for wonder parents, the home, friends, family and necessities I have been provided. :hide:

    If which ever member reading this forward wishes to help:hiya or contribute in anyways towards this humble, great human, young man with the most courage I have ever met, do come forward and get in touch with myself , I shall find out from local sources and let you guys know. No one has asked to contribute anything nor this man himself, its me out of my own interest wish to atleast come forward after seeing his courage of life and spreading education.

    Thank you very much for sharing this Achutty. It started off with Babar sharing what he learnt at school with his friends, daily. Then found more and more kids showing interest and now a school of sorts with 800 kids learning !! WOW, that is truely amazing. What an example Babar has set! Lovely to see other friends his age, voluteering to teach the kids as well.

    That was a fantastic link. Just could not take off my eyes and indeed I was quite emotional too.

    The small schoold with 800 kids amazing... Babar has set a lovely example if only all our educated masses follow!

    Superb the kid is doing excellent job, teaching 800 kids is not that easy. May God bless him with good education and health.
    We should all follow the example the boy has set in front of us.

    hi,

    as some of the above person said, i also felt ashamed. Inspite of all facilities, now so many students are lack of knowledge and helpingness.

    after joining in IndusLadies, i came to know lot of inspirational news.
