The Teacher

Dinu is the lone teacher for these poor children of his village who cannot afford school expenses. Dinu, a former soldier lost his leg in a battle against some militants when he was posted as part of the border security force a few years back. Even the loss of his leg could not undermine his courage. Dinu believes in the power of knowledge and so he tries to spread his knowledge to as many children.
