Sadly such good News about Indians dont come in their newspapers or they are not interested in positive news..
...........................................

Lucknow’s famous 13-year-old child prodigy, Sushma Verma, who has been selected in the M.Sc Microbiology course at the Lucknow university, becoming the youngest ever student for the course, is getting financial help from unexpected quarters.
Her father works as a daily wage earner. Well known lyricist and writer Javed Akhtar has shown interest in supporting Sushma’s education and has sought details of her father from university officials in order to get a clear picture of the financial requirements.
Offers of financial aid has also come from Abhishek Patil from Kolhapur who runs a charitable organisation known as SKA Foundation.
According to Lucknow University proctor Prof Manoj Dixit, who is coordinating the process, he will soon meet Sushma’s father Tej Bahadur to discuss the financial requirement of her education.
Prof. Dixit said that he has also approached the finance officer to get an estimate of the total expenses including the fee structure and hostel fee, in case the girl decided to avail the hostel facility.Sources said that Sushma’s father has also requested university officials to accommodate the entire family in the hostel or near the campus.
Sushma’s name was recommended by the vice chancellor, Prof. Nimse, to the admission cell who said that the girl’s age should not be a hurdle to whatever she wants to achieve. She had completed her B.Sc in Zoology and Botany from a Lucknow University affiliated college this year.
Sushma, has many records to her credit. The Limca Book of Records describes her as the you-ngest matriculate in India. She passed her high school at the age of seven. At 10, she took the medical entr-ance test.
Her brother Shailendra did his high school at the age of nine and BCA at 14. Now at 20, he is doing his MCA at Bengaluru, along with a job.

The problem with Asaram babu is he himself attracted too much attention from media by letting cops wait him for hours and then by blaming top government officials etc.

LOl :) Stay within the topic thank you. :)

Thats how media TRPs work, no controversy-no high TRPs; thats why a certain Asaram is all over media while bigger criminals are left lose.

LLR reminds me Indian Media, More controversy-Bigger thread :):)

Actually being serious for a second, these child prodigies rarely end up having a bright future. In fact most lead tragic lives and never fulfil their potential.

I normally used to visit world media first and then NDTV homepage. As they have given bank account for donation, I might have surely make a new thread like this one http://www.qatarliving.com/node/15503146 as it is very easy for NRI to support that girl.

To achieve what she has achieved at such a young age is truly worthy of much applauding and respect. Her parents must be so proud. In fact, judging by her brother's success too, they should write a book on "how to raise and nurture a child prodigy"! Seriously, they might just be onto a bestseller.

Painther Thanks. :) I mean if all judges are like you who would like to jump into conclusions more often then it would be a good progress indeed. :))

treated badly in so many ways, nothing stops such bright children to be identified.

God Bless her with more wisdom and knowledge and protect her from all evils that come across her and her family.

Lol Painther It is an old news then as it was last updated on 31st August. Anyway it does not appear on home page though. Do you like to again have the same kind of discussion? You are very good in judging, I think you have to be in Supreme Court. :))
