A small town girl from Uttar Pradesh who used to sell newspapers and magazines is an IIT graduate today. Shivangi recently graduated from IIT Roorkee.
She used to study at a government school in her native village Deha. Her father is a newspaper and magazine vendor and Shivangi used to help her father in his small shop. In whatever little time she could save after the shop work, she used to dedicate it to her studies.
Shivangi's inspiring story was recently shared byAnand Kumar , founder of the Super 30 initiative where children from disadvantaged backgrounds are provided coaching for the IIT-JEE examination.
He said she read about Anand's Super 30 success and moved to Patna to take coaching from him. Gradually, she came very close to Anand’s family.
“She would address my mother as ‘dadi’ and we felt she is our daughter. Whenever my mother’s health was impaired, she would help and sleep next to her. Looking at Shivangi, my mother hoped to be blessed with girls in her next birth as well,” wrote Kumar in his post.
This girl is a ray of hope for all those students who aspire to study at India's premier colleges. When there is a will, there is always a way.
