Kozhikode: Doing extraordinary things do not make one great, they say, it is doing ordinary things in an extraordinary way that makes one great.

At least this is true in the case of N Prashanth, Kozhikode District Collector who refused to be a regular ‘babu’ doing his duty within the four walls of his government office. For all right reasons he is the latest favourite of the netizens.

Following a Supreme Court order, Malaparamba aided Upper Primary School was sealed, rendering students out in open.

When the school staff gazed at the skies, throwing their hands in despair, Prashanth did something that is completely unexpected.

He vacated a part of his own office for the sake of the students and made all arrangements to ensure that the learning of the students was not affected.

Entire staff of the school was also given space to conduct their respective duties.

His noble act does not just end here. The Collector has made sure that all the students in are given meals in this temporary school. The district collector was also in news earlier for his innovative idea to help the hungry with the help of Kozhikode food coupons programme.
