Seventeen-year-old Ananya Saluja has a ritual: Every summer, she volunteers in the remotest villages of Leh, Ladakh, and during school days, she raises funds to provide libraries to underprivileged children of the region.

Even as 100 eager children in one of the remotest schools in Ladakh waited, she came bearing gifts – 1500 kg of school equipment carried by 25 horses in -20 degree C temperatures over 3 mountain passes. Meet Sujata Sahu, who took education from New Delhi to Leh, and much beyond.
