Nanjangud :

You might have read stories of a diamond merchant in Surat gifting cars to his employees.

Here is a similar feel-good story in Mysuru district where a school has gifted cars to its teachers who have rendered more than 25 years of dedicated service.

The occasion was the birth anniversary of Javeed Ahmed, the Founder of Citizen’s Group of Institutions, Nanjangud, which the school celebrates as “Founders Day” on Feb. 2. This year, however, the celebration was special and five teachers had a pleasant surprise as the school management handed over the keys of Maruti Altos, recognising their services.

The school, located on the Ooty Road and started by Javeed Ahmed 25 years ago with seven students, has provided quality education to thousands of students.

The cars, each costing about Rs. 4.3 lakh, were handed over by Mashooda Javeed Begum, now President of the institutions, to Head Mistress Hena Kannan, Accountant Shantha, Assistant Teacher Sandhya, Assistant Head Mistress Kutub Tara and Principal Mythili Lakshman.

Receiving the car keys, the teachers appreciated the school management’s gesture and said that it was a pleasant surprise. They said that though people say that teaching is a thankless job as teachers remain in the background, their institution was different in recognising their efforts in shaping children’s lives. “Every year all the staff receives gifts and this year five of us have got cars,” they said.

Hena Kannan said the School Secretary Noor Mohammed Ali studied in the same school and he was her student. Both her daughters studied in the same school. The School President said that they had decided on gifting cars as the teachers had put in more than 25 years of service.
