As an Indian, I come from a culture where literacy is not a alien word. We have heritage of rich culture and literature. He had one of oldest university know to man-kind. We are the one who invented "0" and showed world the path of progress but after 1000yrs of culture still 25% of indian people are illiterate. Due to lack of resources (access to school, poor economical status). The moment I saw this guy in one of poor localities of kolkata.I thought determined person can achieve anything.
