A CSR initiative by Air India, the award recognises responsible citizens-students and teachers, and lauds values in children in particular. This is not the first award for Varsha though. Apart from the title, “Amazing Kid” by C channel, the Taekwondo prac

“I had read a story on Swami Vivekananda where he breaks the tube light with his power of concentration amid a large gathering, since then he has been my role model,” she adds. Varsha expresses her gratitude to her mother, who she believes is her inspiration. “My family has always been supportive and my teachers have been my guiding light,” she says.
