"I was inspired by my father to clean the lake," the girl, Jannat said
The story of a seven-year-old girl, named Jannat, who has been cleaning Jammu and Kashmir's Dal Lake in Srinagar for two years, has been published in a textbook that has been included in the curriculum of a Hyderabad-based school.
The girl is currently studying in the third standard.
"I was inspired by my father to clean the lake. All recognition I am getting is due to my baba," Jannat said in Srinagar.
Jannat's father Tariq Ahmad said, "I got a call from my friend in Hyderabad who said that my daughter's name has been included in a school textbook. I asked him to send it to me. It was a proud moment for me."
