Kunal Kumar, a student of Super 30, hailing from unprivileged section of society, has been selected by the the University of Tokyo for higher education.Earlier this year, another student of Super 30, Abhishek Gupta, was selected for education in Tokyo after clearing the JEE-Mains.
Kunal Kumar's father is unemployed. “Till four years ago, I was struggling even for proper education, even though I had high dreams. It was sheer luck that I was routed to mathematician Anand Kumar's Super 30 through a friend of his and that changed my life,“ said an emotionally charged Kunal.
Impressed with the astounding performance of Super 30, officials of the Tokyo University had visited the institution last year and offered free education to its selected students.
“It is good that Kunal Kumar has got the opportunity .International exposure in a technologically advanced nation like Japan will help him a lot,“ said Anand Kumar, who could not go to Cambridge in his youth due to poverty .
Founded in 2002 , Super 30 has managed to send more than 300 students from extremely poor family to the IITs so far.
