New Delhi: A 10-year-old girl Seema Kumari from Bihar's Maoist-infested Jamui district has set a great example by becoming a source of inspiration for many other differently-abled children as she walks a distance of one kilometer every day to school on one foot. In a video going viral on the internet, Seema can be seen going to school by covering one kilometer on her barefoot. Seeing Seema's enthusiasm and her desire to study, the organisation of film actor Sonu Sood has also expressed a desire to help.

“Now she will go to school by jumping on not one but both feet. I am sending the ticket, the time has come to walk on both feet,” and tagged his NGO, Sood Foundation.

अब यह अपने एक नहीं दोनो पैरों पर क़ूद कर स्कूल जाएगी।
टिकट भेज रहा हूँ, चलिए दोनो पैरों पर चलने का समय आ गया। @SoodFoundation 🇮🇳 https://t.co/0d56m9jMuA

It is worth noting that two years ago, Seema, a resident of Fatehpur village of Khaira block, had become a victim of an accident two years ago. In which she had to lose her leg at the age of 10 years. 

“I want to become a teacher. I want to educate people from the surrounding areas,” the girl remarked with a glint in her eye, betraying her willpower, as reported by The New Indian Express.

Seema's teacher Shivkumar Bhagat said, “I have never found the girl regretting losing her leg in a road accident but instead she always bubbles with confidence.”

Elated by Seema's determination to continue her studies, villagers have decided to lend their support. “She is now a role model for many girls of her age. We will cooperate with the family at all levels,” a local resident Karan Manjhi said.

Dr Ashok Choudhary, Minister of Building Construction Department, Government of Bihar, also has shared a video of Seema and wrote (originally in Hindi), “We are proud that the children of our state are becoming aware of education, crossing all the hurdles and getting an education. Seema and every child like her will be identified and they will be provided appropriate help. However, necessary help has been reached to the girl child,” tagging Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.

हमें गर्व है कि हमारे प्रदेश के बच्चे शिक्षा के प्रति जागरूक हो रहे हैं, सभी बाधाओं को पार कर शिक्षा ग्रहण कर रहे हैं।

सीमा एवं उसके जैसे हर बच्चे को चिन्हित कर उन्हें यथोचित सहायता मुहैया करवाई जायेगी। बहरहाल बिटिया तक जरूरी मदद पहुंचाई गई है। @NitishKumar @Jduonline #Bihar pic.twitter.com/PidkCvrQZN

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said that Seema should be an inspiration for all patriots. In his tweet, he said, “Seema's passion for 10 years made me emotional. Every child in the country wants a good education. I don't know politics, I know that every government has enough resources. To give the best education to every child like Seema should be the mission of every true patriot, this is true patriotism.”

10 साल की सीमा के जज़्बे ने मुझे भावुक कर दिया। देश का हर बच्चा अच्छी शिक्षा चाहता है। मैं राजनीति नहीं जानता, इतना जानता हूँ कि हर सरकार के पास पर्याप्त संसाधन हैं।

सीमा जैसे हर बच्चे को अच्छी से अच्छी शिक्षा देना ही हर सच्चे देशभक्त का मिशन होना चाहिए, यही सच्ची देशभक्ति है। https://t.co/XI5stbpgSN
