Shukla Bose founded the Parikrama schools -- a system for poor children in India that gives individual attention and gets spectacular results. From the TEDIndia stage, her story inspired and warmed the hearts of the audience. Here's what they had to say:

Backstage: Saw Shukla Bose before #TEDIndia this a.m., and she looked calm and cool. And yet she'd rewritten her entire talk last night. Wow -- TEDIndia

Shukla Bose - a touching story about the "human condition" - this is the most optimistic story so far -- Udindex

Shukla Bose: Teachers are not just teachers. They are also parents. Kids need a nurturing relationship. -- kokoe2
