Anurag Sharma, a student of city-based JH Tarapore School has made the school proud for the second time consecutively by bagging the prize in the Google Code-In contest being organised by Google. The Google Code-In is a contest to introduce pre- University students (aged 13-17 years) to many kinds of contributions that make open source software development possible. The contestants are supposed to work with open source organisations and complete many ‘bit’ sized tasks for them.
Anurag completed 27 tasks while working for an organisation named Sahana Software Foundation, which is a non-profit organisation dedicated to the mission of saving lives, by providing information management solutions that enable organisations and communities to prepare better for and respond to disasters. He has been selected as one of the 24 grand prize winners and will be again visiting the Google headquarters in the month of June 2015. lata Sharat, principal, JH Tarapore School congratulated Anurag for achieving the remarkable feat.
