Sachin Tendulkar is something more than a legend!...

Sachin Tendulkar is something more than a legend! The word 'inspirational' seems too small for a person like him. He's truly God's greatest gift to India ♥

The little master, newly sworn member of the Indian Parliament, the Rajya Sabha, has turned down the bungalow allotted to him by the Govt. All members of the parliament are given plots to live. But Sachin refused to live there by saying, ''I’m not keen on blocking a government bungalow because this would be a waste of tax payer’s money as I reside in Mumbai. It would be better if the bungalow is allotted to someone else who needs it more than me,” he said.

Sachin has said that he will live at his own expense in a local hotel whenever the parliament session takes place, and that the bungalow should be given to people (poor) who need it more than him.

NDTV and Coca-Cola India on Friday celebrated the completion of transforming the 100th school under the 'Support My School' initiative at Priyadarshini Vidyalaya in northwest Mumbai.


The event also marked the inauguration of the 50th school library under the initiative. Set up by Pearson Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Pearson, a media and education company, the library has over 600 books on all subjects. It was inaugurated by campaign ambassador and cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar.
I am honoured to be associated with this inspiring campaign that is committed to provide the right infrastructure to keep children happy in schools," said Tendulkar
Representatives of the campaign partners UN-Habitat, Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), Tata Teleservices, Pearson Foundation and Sulabh International were also present at the occasion.


"This is my first century away from cricket and a very happy one. I am honoured to be associated with this inspiring campaign that is committed to provide the right infrastructure to keep children happy in schools. Reaching the milestone of the 100th revitalised school is a proud and joyous occasion for us," Tendulkar said.


The campaign was initiated in January 2011 with a vision to address issues such as access to drinking water, sanitation and infrastructure facilities in schools and to create healthy, active and happy environment at schools.

Over 43,000 children across 10 states in India have benefited from the campaign that has helped reduce dropouts and absenteeism and increased enrolments in these revitalised schools.


Also present at the occasion were Vikram Chandra, Group CEO of NDTV and Atul Singh, president and CEO of Coca-Cola India and South West Asia.


Speaking about the library, Khozem Merchant, president of Pearson India said: "Our library project has been an extraordinary success with students spending quality time reading books outside of their curriculum, some for the very first time."
