Case Study Krishna has got the charm of life again Krishna has got the charm of life again –Krishna Jana, a girl of 13, was reading in class-IV in a primary school. She was very interested in her studies. But she failed to get admission in class-V. Her parent was also not interested to give her education. She used to work in a grocery shop with her father to help her family economically. In this situation one day our social worker of that village came to know about her.
