These kids are very bright," school trainer Azizurrahman said.According to school principal Rashid Ali, the children were brought to the academy by a student of city-based Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) who is surveying the condition of the children of mob lynching victims."The man went to their homes in Alwar and persuaded their guardians to send them for self-defence training. He brought them to us and we admitted them here. We train them like any other student of the school," he said.The main aim of training these children in self-defence, the principal said, is to instil a sense of confidence and channelise their energy in a positive direction.

It includes Boxing, Kick Boxing, Karate etc. I enjoy very much."His brother Sahil also expressed a desire to become a player to play for the country. (ANI)
