A Karnataka school headmaster spent three months’ salary to fund an air trip for 20 students to Delhi, saying their dreams include flying.
A school headmaster in Karnataka allocated three months of his salary to arrange an air journey for twenty students to the national capital, Delhi. The initiative was undertaken to give the children a chance to experience air travel, a dream many of them cherish.
The headmaster explained that the decision was motivated by the desire to broaden the students' horizons and expose them to opportunities beyond their hometown. By covering the cost himself, he aimed to ensure that financial constraints would not hinder the youngsters from fulfilling a simple yet meaningful aspiration.
The flight, organized through a commercial airline, saw the group board a Delhi‑bound aircraft, marking a memorable day for both the students and the educator who financed the trip. Local residents praised the gesture as a testament to the commitment of educators toward holistic development of their pupils.
