Rajanna Sircilla: A 13-year-old boy from Telangana came up with an innovative concept to simplify the work of his mother, a labourer who filled up gunny bags with paddy.

The boy, Marripalli Abhishek, a Class VIII student invented the paddy-filling machine which can do the job of three persons.

Abhishek's father Laxmirajan migrated to Dubai in search of employment while his mother, Rajavva worked overtime to fill up the gunny bags. To ease her work, Abhishek conceptualized a paddy-filling machine with the support of his teacher Venkatesham who also helped him finalize the design.
