On the one hand we have sons of priveleged/pampered/political families getting things (and degrees) the easy way. On the other, we have such genuinely talented sons of the soil rising above their own poverty and the apathy of the world. Political leaders are supposed to be role models. But, unfortunately, in India, the role models have to be searched elsewhere.

Thanks also for the glimpse of Marathi literature, which is an unknown territory for me.

Siddharth’s is such an inspirational story, and a great example of how a life can change with proper mentoring and hard work. If I am not mistaken , Siddharth’s brother also functions as Sachin’s personal assistant. So really, this is a wonderful example of how education has helped a family see better days…

It can not be imagined by people not familiar with India. Siddharth’s achievement is very significant requiring more of ‘fire in the belly’ and grit than just economic support.

Thanks for your good words.

@SGD: When you say ‘such posts keep my achievements in tact’, my day is made! Thanks a ton,

Vivek

Such achievements keep my faith intact…that humanity exists. That there are people who have the guts to rise above social handicaps and those who have the courage to inspire, guide and mentor those who have the talent, the aspiration but not the means….

Great post!
