A school for their children - a gift from illiterate poor parents

There are no schools in the neighbourhood and almost 95 percent of the population is illiterate, the villagers themselves admit.
The Vasela Phali villagers named their school 'Sarasvati Vidya Mandir'. It has only one teacher as of now and is housed in a makeshift facility.
But the most important thing is that it has become the home for learning for 64 children, making their parents proud.
"I don't get salary every month because the villagers are very poor. But I am here for the love of it. I have enrolled 64 children aged between 5 and 14 years in the past one year," said a beaming Bheraram Devasi, the teacher.
Bheraram is the only villager who has completed college education.
He said he had written many times to the state's education minister and the district collector for help but was yet to get a response.
