Saroj Dhawan went through the painful partition experience and moved to India from Pakistan. Her family left behind everything they owned. With the education they had received, they were able to find jobs and start a new life. That is when she realized the important truth - People can take away everything but no one can take away your education . This was a message she constantly shared with her children. To honor this teaching, her children decided to sponsor an Ekal school in the village Kadamtola, Sundargarh district in Odisha as a birthday gift for her 75th birthday. |
