A free school under a metro rail bridge

A boy writes on a blackboard painted onto the wall of a building, at a free school under a metro rail bridge , in New Delhi, India.

The school was founded by Rajesh Kumar Sharma, who was unable to complete his own college education, because of financial difficulties . Every day he takes two hours out to teach children of local laborers , while his brother replaces him at his general store .

Together with an assistant , Laxmi Chandra , Sharma gives lessons to around 45 children daily, having persuaded their families to free them from working to earn money .
