SOMETHING I LOOK AT-401
BY- SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY

THE GREAT MASTERS OF ALANAHAT HIGH SCHOOL

ANADI CHARAN MOHANTY
KORTAL

A man of wisdom
humble and bright

Nurturing young minds with knowledge and light.

Affectionate son of Hansanath so dear

Dedicated to Saraswati
his mother sincere.

In Kortal he was born
in 1928's year.

Charmed by numbers
he shined at school

His talent in math made learning so cool.

At Balikuda High
he mastered the game

Refining his skills
earning great fame.

A lifelong teacher
with patience so grand

Nurturing young minds with a guiding hand.

Married to Pramada
a bond so divine,

Over years of teaching
he let young minds shine.

His wisdom flourished in Alanahat's halls

A beacon of knowledge within those walls.

Numbers and logic
he made them so clear

Through his kind ways
he eased every fear.

Years may pass
but he's still held dear.

Kortal, his home, where his journey began,

Overcoming struggles
shaping many a man.

Remaining so simple
so humble, so wise,

Till his last breath
he lit up the skies.

Aged eighty-seven
he bid us goodbye

Leaving his lessons to never die.

(Anadi Charan Mohanty, son of Hansanath Mohanty and Saraswati Mohanty, was born in Kortal, Jagatsinghpur, in 1928. He completed his matriculation at Balikuda High School and later married Pramada Kumari Mohanty.

A brilliant mathematics teacher, he had a unique ability to spark interest in the subject, making learning both engaging and accessible. His teachings left a lasting impression on many, including me, and I can still recall his lessons vividly.

A man of simplicity and deep commitment to education, he was known for his affectionate nature and dedication to his students. He passed away on December 12,2015, at the age of 87, leaving behind a legacy of inspiration and knowledge.)
