Abhishek, different people have different
superheroes. Who is your Superhero? And, why?(100
words)
My superhero belongs from the legends of
Mahabharata. Karna, son of God Sun was discarded
by his royal mother, somehow grew up in scheduled
caste, cursed by even his teacher for whom he could
have sacrificed his life, choose the path of death
throwing away the whole Kuru Kingdom just for the
sake of his friendship with Duryodhana. Even after
all the odds he emerged as the greatest archer whom
even Krishna couldn’t defeat without conspiracy. He
never bow down in front of misfortunes rather he
raised above all those odds just on his own with pure
will and intention.

Mahuari, Bihar. Coming from one of the most
backward villages of Bihar to Ashoka without any
guidance with just a leap of faith was possible
because of the information I can access. Information
