A School at Chennai conducted a maths competition to children of 4-8 th standard. Nearly 8000 children participated from these 5 standards. Lekas son Varun participated in that 2 months back. The results were announced last week. Varun got the 4th rank among 4th standard children and won a cash price of Rs 250 ( so Leka is richer by Rs 250 thro the son and by Rs 7 lakhs thro the stock market boom )
