Chinna R (3/28/20)

Chinna (DOB: 3/28/20) lives with his mother and three siblings. A year ago, his father tragically passed away in a motorcycle accident, leaving his mother to support the family on her own. His mother works as a vendor, repairing zippers, but her income is meager and barely enough to meet their basic needs. The family lives in a makeshift tent made from plastic sheets, bamboo sticks and drapes. The roof leaks during the rainy season, causing everything inside to become damp and deteriorate. They lack essential facilities like clean water, electricity, toilets, and proper drainage. Despite these hardships, Chinna’s mother is deeply committed to her children's education, determined to provide them with a better future. Chinna is a calm and cheerful child. Though quiet, he becomes comfortable with his close circle of friends. He enjoys attending school and is passionate about sports and athletics, often spending time playing with his friends. His true dream, however, is to become a dancer.
