Infosys mentor & founder Naryana Murthy once said, dream dream dream, unless you dream, how you can reach near your dream? But for the visually handicapped Naga Babu the meaning of dream is simply different. For him dream means indomitable desire to hang on your dream.
After a long legal battle this poor blind guy form Krishna district of Andhra Pradesh has finally succeeded to join an engineering college to pursue his higher education. Recently the Andhra Pradesh High Court has cleared his admission.
He was the first visually challenged student to complete diploma in software education. But he faced many hindrances to pursue his BE degree. He first faced the autocracy of authority to appear in the entrance exam. But after the honourable High Court cleared his name Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University allowed him to appear in the exam. But again the authorities of the university withheld his exam result. But after the High Courts interference they announced the results, where he ranked 74th position. But the admission was further delayed because it needed clearance from the State Council of technical education. But finally on 20th October the expert committee cleared his name for the admission.
