The Dhaka Orphanage Society (Hindu), located in a narrow Farashganj road, is facing numerous challenges that have drawn attention to its neglected state.
A small incident took place at a school in Burdwan in 1944. A class teacher of Grade 7 was wrongly reprimanding a student, accusing him of stacking all the high benches of the classroom against the short ones the previous evening, when a lanky boy stood up and said, “It was not Abanti, it was me.” Impressed by the boy’s moral courage, the teacher excused him.
