Tech Whiz Sanath shows resilience against all odds
VIJAYAWADA: Safaru Sanath Kumar, a Class X student from PM Shri Zilla Parishad High School (ZPHS) and Junior College in Penamaluru, Vijayawada, has emerged as a symbol of determination and resilience. Standing at just 95 cm tall and weighing 11 kg due to growth hormone deficiency, Sanaths story highlights the transformative impact of inclusive education and the discovery of hidden talent. Born into a weaving community, Sanaths family has roots in the Swakula Sali community, with ancestors who migrated from Maharashtra. His father, Lakshmi Prasad, works as a tea maker and cook, while his mother, Pallavi, manages house with tailoring skills. The familys challenges are magnified by the fact that Sanaths younger brother, Haristh, a 3rd-grade student, also suffers from growth hormone deficiency. Sanath studied at a private school in Anantapur until class 8, when his life took a pivotal turn. Identified by Chakshumathi, a think tank focused on inclusive education and assisstive technologies, Sanath underwent psychometric testing in 9th grade. His aptitude for logical thinking and problem-solving steered him toward computer science, marking the beginning of his inspiring journey in inclusive education. Durga Bhavani, the schools principal, describes Sanath as a model of perseverance and passion. He embodies determination, inspiring both peers and teachers with his unwavering focus, she said. With the help of a Chromebook, Sanath has mastered online and offline learning, leveraging accessibility features designed for children with sensory and neurodivergent challenges. His exceptional skills earned him the prestigious title of Young Google Champion at the Google Champions Energisers event in Gurgaon in 2024making him the only student to achieve this distinction. Sanaths growth has been supported by Chakshumathi, an NGO that provided personal coaching in fitness, technology, and communication. Ram Kamal, the founder of Chakshumathi and a senior advisor for inclusive education in Andhra Pradesh, emphasised the importance of nurturing every childs potential. Every child is an opportunity. With understanding, support, and belief, they can shine and contribute to the world. Sanath is proof of this, he said. Fitness trainer Abhishek Dutt Bahuguna designed a tailored regimen focusing on cardio, flexibility, and strength to ensure Sanaths lifelong fitness. Consistency is key to sustaining this programme, said Abhishek, a sports management professional from the International Institute of Sports Management. Technology coach Tharun, a specialist in inclusive STEM education, praised Sanaths aptitude for technology. He completed his 10th-grade syllabus in just a few months and now trains younger students in AI tools for advanced learning, he noted. Sanaths achievements have drawn recognition from Andhra Pradesh HRD Minister Nara Lokesh, who recently interacted with him, praised his accomplishments, and encouraged his aspirations. Additionally, Sanath has visited Vedantu headquarters, where he continues to receive online education support. My sons achievements exemplify the transformative power of inclusive education. With the right support and determination, any child can shine, said Lakshmi Prasad. Speaking with confidence, Sanath shared his dream of working with Google in the future. He attributes his success to the unwavering support of his parents, Principal Durga Bhavani, and mentors like Ram Kamal, Tharun, Sajin and Abhishek. Sanaths journey is a powerful reminder that inclusive education can unlock immense potential, proving that no obstacle is insurmountable with determination.

Property rights will help end rural poverty: PM Modi
NEW DELHI: Property rights will enhance economic activities and help in poverty alleviation in villages, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Saturday. Distributing more than 65 lakh property cards under the SVAMITVA scheme at a virtual event, the Prime Minister highlighted the global challenge of property rights. In the 21st century, there are so many challenges like climate change, water shortage, health crises, and epidemics. But the world has been facing one more big challenge. This challenge is of property rights. Many years ago, the United Nations had done a study on land property in many countries of the world, he said. The UN had clearly stated that if poverty is to be reduced, then it is very important for people to have property rights, he added. Modi said India has faced this issue as well. Despite having property worth lakhs of rupees in villages, people often did not have legal documents for them. So there were disputes about their ownership, the Prime Minister said. He also referred to an economists observation that property in villages was like dead capital since it could not generate income for its owners. Dalits, backward classes and tribals were the worst affected by this, he said. Modi noted that the SVAMITVA scheme, initiated five years ago, aimed to provide villagers with legal proof of their houses. The names are different in different states, but these are the certificates of SVAMITVA. In the last five years, these cards have been given to about 1.5 crore people, he said. Modi said the scheme would help people access loans and government benefits. Because there were no papers, there were disputes, and banks did not provide loans over such properties, he said. Property cards were distributed among 65 lakh beneficiaries living across over 50,000 villages in 10 states Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, HP, MP, Maharashtra, Mizoram, Odisha, Punjab, Rajasthan, UP and UTs of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh.
Panel to look into agriculture price crashes, hike in farm income
NEW DELHI: Amid farmers protests, the Centre is planning to appoint an experts committee that will examine traders manipulations behind agriculture produce price crashes. Based on the committees recommendations, the government will intervene in the market to stabilise prices and augment farmers incomes. A senior government official said the government is looking for a middle path to address farmers concerns. It has no plan to legalise MSP and ensure C2-50% demand as per the Swaminathan committee. The main reason for farmers protests is lower market price of agriculture produce, which can be checked regularly by an expert committee, said the official, who is part of a group looking into farmers protests. Legalising MSP may impact the production of crops, potentially threatening Indias food security, the official said. MSP is primarily based on demand and supply situation, global and domestic price trends, and consumer impact. It is not feasible to increase grain prices that neither suit our domestic nor global consumers. It may backfire just like in Maharashtra where government made it mandatory to sell produce not below MSP and then crops start rotting without buyers. The governments thinking is based on the recent research done by NITI Aayog member Ramesh Chand and co-author Jaspal Singh, who underlined that the production of non-MSP agriculture products has doubled compared to MSP products in last two decades. Crops covered under MSP experienced less than half of the growth in output of non-MSP crops. Even in the absence of price support, horticulture crops showed about 4% growth in output, the paper said.
