Kerala : By studying in the free WIFI of the railway station, a porter made the dream of becoming an “IAS” come true,

There is a saying – Who says that success decides only luck, if there is strength in intentions, then the floors themselves bow down. There were some such strong intentions of this young man working as a porter at Ernakulam station, who wrote his own destiny along with the responsibilities of the house and got success in the UPSC exam. Till a few years ago, this person, who worked as a porter, has set a new example of success in the world by becoming an IAS officer.

Don’t let the lack of resources become a hindrance in success

Often you must have seen people complaining about not getting success, in which most of the people blame the lack of resources as the reason for their failure. They believe that if they had got all the comforts, they could have done something better in life. But Srinath never had any complaint about this. He achieved a new height by turning disaster into opportunity. He never let the paucity of resources come in the way of his success.

Conquered UPSC’s fort without coaching

Every year lakhs of candidates try their luck to clear this examination of Union Public Service Commission. For this, they prepare for many years by spending lakhs of rupees in big coaching institutes, but Srinath, originally from Kerala, worked as a porter at the railway station, not only succeeded in UPSC without any coaching help. Rather, before this, he has also raised his name in the examination of Kerala Public Service Commission.

Railway’s free WiFi was used properly

Srinath could not pay the fees of the coaching center and the only thing in his mind was that without the coaching center he would not be able to pass this difficult exam. This was the reason why he started preparing for KPSC. His difficult path was made easy by the free WiFi installed at the railway station. He started studying on his smart phone from this Wi-Fi.

This free WiFi was no less than a boon for them. He used to work as a porter here and listen to online lectures as soon as he got time. On the basis of his dedication and hard work, Srinath got success in KPSC. From here, he got the belief that he can similarly pass the UPSC exam with the help of free Wi-Fi. And he did so.

रेलवे के निःशुल्क WiFi से केरल में कुली का कार्य करने वाले श्रीनाथ के जीवन में एक बहुत बड़ा परिवर्तन आया है, स्टेशन पर उपलब्ध WiFi के उपयोग से उन्होंने तैयारी कर प्रतियोगी परीक्षा में सफलता प्राप्त की है, मैं उनकी सफलता पर उन्हें बधाई और भविष्य के लिये शुभकामनाएं देता हूँ। pic.twitter.com/fiAErjO2x0
