Abhilash rescued from a dustbin in Chennai by Vidyakaron on March 7, 1994, the man behind Udavum Karangal,, preparing to be an IAS officer : When he opened it, he found a newborn baby gasping for breath and frothing. The umbilical cord of the baby was not tied and there were ants all over its body, feeding on its tender skin. He rushed the baby to a nearby hospital, and in two days' time, the baby was ready to go back home; home for the baby was Udavum Karangal, as it was for countless other abandoned babies. True to his potential, Abhilash was a recipient of a scholarship throughout his school and college days and scored excellent marks. In college, other than topping the college, he won many inter-collegiate competitions, and also received awards for Perfect Attendance and being the Best Outstanding student. Having studied Commerce, his initial desire was to be a Chartered Accountant. But he now wishes to prepare for the Civil Service Examination and become an Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer. Though many children from Udavum Karangal have become engineers and bankers, it was for the first time that a child from the home is trying to become an IAS officer. If Papa had not picked me up from the dustbin, I would have died, choking in the bag. If I can do at least a fraction of what he does, I would consider my life worthwhile. I don't want this life given to me to go to waste!" It is now Vidyakar's dream also to see Abhilash become the first IAS officer from Udavum Karangal. "More than that, I want him to be a good human being who cares about society. He is a go-getter and a hard worker. So, I am sure he will get there!" Share this with friends and relatives. Ravi
Vidyakar went back to the same spot and this time, he could find the bag. It was closed.
