Dr. Anant

 Dr. Anant carefully examined the contents of the mail. He was pleased with the hack that Saira and Shibu had managed. Dr. Anant had recently picked them up from the '16 under 16' list. He believed and often said the younger, the better. He is wise to realize that in such fast-changing times, the generation gap happened not in generation after generation but year after year. Through his lifetime, he saw the evolution of education from schools offering uniform curriculum to schools now offering a space for children to come and explore the ocean of knowledge and specialize in whatever they like. Children now looked forward to assessments because the AI systems opened them access to relevant content based on the way they have done their assessments. By their teenage, students are now able to passionately establish themselves as experts in their chosen fields. He knew that the adults who came from the not-so-upgraded education system could in no way match the competencies of these youngsters. This hack by Saira and Shibu only reinforced his confidence in 'the younger, the better.' 

   Dr. Anant plays an underdog by offering internships to young students. His actual mission has completely remained out of suspicion due to this strategy. He offers state-of-the-art infrastructure to the students to pursue their projects, while he gets the best work done without the huge liability of employing experts. 

  

 He opened and examined each mail item and right in front of him, he saw the mail that he was expecting to find. He opened it, his suspicions began to come true as he read each word, it also opened up further puzzling questions in his mind. His brain raced as he read the mail, trying to connect the dots. He had no clue right now, that this mail is going to completely change the direction of his life and mission.
