Help Saikat!




A little history behind the current candidate (From an acquaintance in Calcutta who forwarded this to me):

“Regarding Saikat, I know his background since his father is working with us for the past nearly 20 years climbing up the ladder from the peon to stores supervisor. His wife had undergone open heart surgery last year at CMC, Vellore for Mitral Valve replacement for which he took a loan of Rs. 1.50 lacs from the company and still he is spending beyond his means for her medicines, tests etc. The boy understood the hardships of life and given a little encouragement will definitely outperform others. His school has sponsored him as 1 of 2 candidates for National Talent Search Examination, 2010. As I informed you earlier he is studying in a Govt. school where the school fee is very low and the quality of teaching is also equally bad. To cope up with others, he has to take private tutions after the school hours which costs very high and this is applicable throughout West Bengal. Even Missinnary schools like the one which Manas is attending, condition is the same and I am shell
ing out Rs. 750/=- P.M. for his Mathematics tution in spite of their school charging an exhorbitant fee.”

Request you to please help with the cause!! You can contact us at info@creativeminds.com, if you need more information about Saikat, and our efforts to help him go to school.
