Kundapur, 23 July 2013: He is a twenty-two-year-old born physically challenged youngster. He is a lone son to his parents.  His father became alcoholic addict as he could no more care for his physically challenged son.  His mother was sustaining the family by working as daily wager.  His grandfather began teaching him lessons.  In spite of him not attending any classes, he loved his studies.  He began to write articles and began to read stories and novels.  He became fluent in English and Hindi.  He had a great ambition of appearing for SSLC exam.
