Here, he conducts an open-air mathematics class, which attracts many students in and around the town. The classes are conducted early in the day so students can return home before the sun gets brighter.

While he tried taking his classes at his place, but it wasnt feasible due to the many batches. So, he adopted this open-air system, where children can bring their own chairs or mats.
