[{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1469524274378","data":"Mumbai 'The city of dreams' has probably left many dreams to the people living in it, and one such dream for the kids of Sathe Nagar was to have a proper way to school which was 1.5 km away, which included a 100 feet long stretch of an open nullah. When during rains they had to face the worst conditions with the overflowing dirty water which may also give birth to diseases like dengue and malaria, with this the parents of the kids were also not ready to send their kids to school due to that dangerous canal. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1469524763244","data":"57972b23619de"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1469524650566","data":"Eshan a 17-year-old, class XII commerce student of Bedekar college in Thane, when came to know about this situation of the kids of Sathe Nagar and the kind of trouble they are facing with that open nullah, he was deeply moved and decided to help the sprouting future of the country. <\/p>After a lot of determined research, strong nosed Eshan finally decided to build a bamboo bridge which was economical and strong by nature! He then initiated the 4 foot wide and 100-foot long bridge which took 8 days to complete and connects the Sathenagar to PGMP colony. The bridge can carry 50 people at a time. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1469524771267","data":"57972b2ae48e8"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1469524672402","data":"\u2018They explained that crossing the nullah came with risks such as skin infections, malaria, dengue and other diseases. <\/p>I felt terrible when I saw the children wade through the disgusting sludge. I spent most of my time in that area. I wanted the project to get over as soon as possible for the benefit of the students,\u2019 said Eshan. <\/p>Eshan plans to maintain this bridge until a government official takes up responsibility, and now he is planning to improve the sanitary conditions of that area. <\/p>Eshan's human acts are inspired by his parents who run a school in Thane for underprivileged kids. <\/p>We hope to witness more young minds to come forward and take a step to develop our streets !<\/p>"}]
