In the western Indian state of Rajasthan, an Indian farmer from the uphill village of Piplodi has unexpectedly found himself in the spotlight. Although 60-year-old Mor Singh never attended school, he became a local hero for his unselfish act of donating his home to the village school when it was severely destroyed by severe rainfall. He claims that his small two-room home is now used as an upper primary school with 50–60 local students. The state government provided Mr. Singh with 200,000 rupees ($2,266, £1,682) in financial support last week in appreciation of his thoughtful act.
