There are 7 members in his family and his father does small business. His teacher says that Deepak is a well disciplined, friendly and hardworking student. He Is always eager to learn he comes to school with all his homework and class work done. But his teacher has only one problem Deepak doesn’t come to school with a school uniform. The main reason for this is that though Deepak’s father works hard the money he earns is not quite enough for the family of seven people which results in Deepak’s parent’s inability to buy him the proper set of school uniforms. Deepak like any other student wishes to come to school in proper set of school uniform.
