What this Story Teaches
This story teaches realisation, introspection, confession, the group coordination and welfare deeds by a group
of boys and finally a lesson to get something by doing something.

Story—Seeing a peon’s son becoming an
IAS, Robin a 23 year old, elder son of a daily
worker determined to give qualitative education
to his two younger brothers. He took a job as an
electrician in a surgical instrument factory at
Ghaziabad. He approached the supervisor for a
special favour and on satisfactory performances
he was allowed to work for double shift. On
detailing the problem of siblings education.
Inspite of ‘16’ hours of working further he did not
hesitate to attempt for extra work for additional
payment. With 4 years of rigorous efforts his one
brother completed the B. Tech. and another one
MBA from BHU Varanasi and both got the
campus placement. Robin got warm welcome on

Interpretation—Story itself or any projection, work, performance, help, cooperation given or done
in the SSB should not be award seeking. Award, welcome, thanks or any commendation may suffice the
requirement for maximum one or in two stories. One or two stories may teach a lesson or set an
example, as so many people can learn, get motivated or opt it.
Explanation—Again it is a motivational story. Hero got motivated from a peon’s son who got an
IAS Cadre. This excelled his enthusiasm/ zeal and he undertook the challenge, became an electrician,
chose to work for double shift parting with additional work for extra earning to supplement more for
their educational expenses. He preferred to stay there as he knew that being a daily worker it was
beyond their parents to meet out the expenses of an elite institutions. He never allowed his brothers to
feel the shortage of any thing. His 4 years of hard work brought the fruit to his family setting an
example as a good brother and a good worker.
