Based in Noida, Sujal Singh admitted into IIT Delhi in a Civil Engineering course. It was a dream come true not only for him but for his family as well. But soon, Sujal realised that his interest and future of the world lies in Computer. Hence with support of his father, he rejected the IIT Delhi seat and went to get an admission in Delhi Technological University (DTU) in Computer Science course.
Sujal’s father sells towel near the Great India Place mall, Noida. With 5-6 customers on daily basis, his father works hard to meet the two ends. But seeing his son dedication, 47 years old Balwant Singh who earns less than Rs 20,000 in a month happily devotes his left over savings for Sujal’s education. Recalling the hard work of his son with Indian Express, he said, “I knew my child was capable, he used to study all day. Sujal woke up early in the morning and studied till late at night. Whenever I would wake up at night to get water at about 2-3 am, he would still be studying. He never spent much time outside with friends also.”
As stated by Balwant Singh, Sujal scored 99.5 percent in JEE Mains all credits to his hard work. Sharing his views on Sujal’s education he said that, “I never forced my kids to pursue a particular field. I want to see them excel in the field they opt for.” Moreover, Singh’s daughter is pursing Science in Delhi and aims to crack UPSC examination.
Sujal Singh’s dream to get admission in DTU was not an easy one. The fees of the University is higher hence rejecting the idea of bank loan, Balwant borrowed money from his relatives. Seeing the calibre of Sujal, his relatives supported him financially. Sharing deeds, Balwant said Sujal’s uncle lent them Rs 1 lakh for his education. However, at the same time, he is worried about the future expenses of his education but firmly believes that he will manage Sujal’s education.
