Rahul Gandhi discovers some gems among tribal children
On the third day of his four day tour to Orissa, Amethi MP Rahul Gandhi visited a residential school run for tribal children, in Kankiya village of Ganjam district. All of the 417 children who live here are first generation literates. This co educational school is from the 3rd to 10th standard. Rahul Gandhi spent four hours interacting with the children of the school.
Rahul Gandhi was pleased to discover that many of the children here are extremely talented. One girl is a beautiful singer, while the other has potential of being a world class weight lifting champion. Rajiv Gandhi foundation has funded a library for the children of this residential school.
The thought behind it is to fill the gap of lack of education in this part of the country.
Like all children their age, these boys and girls too had dreams of becoming doctors and engineers. Some even wanted to grow up and become politician
