"First Prize goes to⌠Nayan from Shalbon High School."
For a moment, he couldn't move.
The crowd clapped.
Some students who once laughed now stared in surprise.
The judges said,
"Innovation is not about expensive tools. It is about solving real problems."
Nayan held the trophy tightly.
That small-town boy had taken his first big step.
