Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar is going to support the education of an 11-year-old boy who hails from his ancestral village, Kalyan Bigaha, in the Nalanda district.
The boy grabbed the attention of all dignitaries. The boy got the chance to meet CM while he was in the village to garland his wife Manju Sinha's statue.
The boy addressed him with folded hands. "Sir, I need your support for my education. My father does not help me," cried Sonu Kumar. "I study at a government school. The teaching standards are pathetic.
BIHAR BOY NARRATES PLEADS FOR EDUCATION
My mathematics teacher has a problem with numbers and cannot manage basic English," said Sonu.
The boy informed the minister about the poor standard of education in government schools. He shared that he wanted to become a high-ranking officer, maybe IAS and it is not possible with the poor standard of education.
" My father sells dairy items for a living. But he could not care less about my education. Whatever he earns he squanders on liquor and toddy," claimed the child, in what could be an embarrassment for the chief minister's much-touted prohibition drive.
The boy studies in Class 6 and claims to teach students junior to him to support himself.
