ED: How
did you start working in the field of Service?
KR: I
always used to hear that whatever deeds one performs , it returns to him or her
back and as I grew up this thought grew stronger with me and still I don’t know
when it became a desire in me to serve my society in every possible way to
serve the nation one day. And when I became a part of The Fabindia School
slowly by slowly this desire came into Action.
ED: What
challenges did you face while performing such deeds?
KR: When
I started serving people around me, some people criticized me and some
appreciated me but yes, as it is said that “Nothing is easy to get one needs to
pay a price to earn it” .And after every criticism my will grew more and more
stronger and today because of those taunts I have a path to walk on.
ED: How
has the school helped you to inculcate these qualities?
KR: I
am very thankful to my school for inculcating these qualities in me
by organizing various service projects inside and outside the school which
helped me to lighten the true spirit of a responsible and a noble citizen. With
that I am very delighted to be a part of My Good School Program at
our school which provides various opportunities to every child in the school to
build better communication with the society.
ED: How
will you encourage more and more children to participate in service projects?
KR: I
would organize various service activities to popularize this field and with
that I would also make children aware about the importance of service in their
upcoming life because it is necessary for the young generation to understand
their role as a good human being in honor of their nation.
ED: What
have you achieved in this field?
KR: I
have achieved lot of respect and recognition from the society, a proud feeling
for my parents, I stand as a good human being and most important the happiness
after doing something good for others and all this is the greatest achievement
for me.
ED: What
are your future plans to continue in this field?
KR: After
passing out from the school I will continue being a part of my Good School Program
and with that I will spread my knowledge to develop the society in a better
manner and would arrange campaigns to collaborate with other people to keep my self-engaged
in helping others.

adjustment needed for a particular art form.

tried to make it better than the original one. Many times, it happened with me
