When a student taught Sudha Murthy a life lesson

When philanthropist-author Sudha Murthy decided to sponsor a child's education little did she know that the student, though unintentionally, would end up teaching her a big lesson on honesty.

Hanumanthappa, academically bright, "pale" in complexion and financially poor, first caught Murthy's attention when she saw his photograph in a newspaper for securing eighth rank in class 10th board examinations in Karnataka.

"He was frail and pale, but there was an endearing sparkle in his eyes. Hanumanthappa was a coolie's son, the oldest of five children. His father, the sole breadwinner earned only Rs 40 a day," writes Murthy in her new book 'Here,There and Everywhere'.
