“I have been able to build this steamed vehicle after 55-failed attempts. I had to invest Rs 85,000 for making this vehicle,” Prasanna said.
Prasanna is a BA second semester student of a local college. His mother took a loan from local agency to make his son’s dream a reality.
Prasanna works as a part-time worker in the college canteen to earn extra money for his dream project.

The project needs more work for better finishing which has been put on hold due to lack of funds, he said.
