[Assam] Schoolgirls set example of honesty

[DR BIKASH KUMAR DAS]

I am prous of my small historic village-Kalaigaon, the home of Kamakhya's pujari Kendu kalai.Ironically my eldest brother Jayanta Kumar Das is high school teacher at the same school and the school is in our land.
  Today due to negligencies-kalaigaon is in famouse, but the students try hard to acheive their goals. Same way my elder daughter,Dorothy, born there now plays national level girls hockey for KV Schools.She have been playing for past 2 years. Of course we are at Bangalore now.But pride of my home town give more pleasure.
  Bravo girls.

KALAIGAON, Feb 19 – A rare example of honesty set by some schoolgirls here have come to light to inspire thousands of others. 

On February 12, a day after the Saraswati Puja, a few students of Kalaigaon Girls’ High School, who had been cleaning the school campus, found a bag on KR Road, in front of the school, containing eight thousand rupees and some important documents. Instead of sharing the money among themselves, the honest girls handed over the bag to Achyut Roy Choudhury, Headmaster of the school, who in turn arranged to return it to its owner one Ram Chouhan.

The happy owner offered some cash reward to the girls, but they politely refused, saying it was their duty. The girls were Sangita Deka, Priyanka Saharia, Sumi Nath, Kanak Lata Nath, Runu Deka, Mousumi Kataki, Parismita Deka, Santana Sarma and Rumi Deka.
