SUPER 30 STUDENT GET LESSONS IN MORAL VALUES:-
Patna : Considered a nursery for economically backward students to qualify for
the prestigious IITs, Super30 is now imparting lessons in moral values.
The institute's founder Anand Kumar is sensitising the students against dowry
and display of wealth in social functions.
"During the marriages of former students who are doing well now after passing
out from the IITs, I saw display of wealth. That is why I am teaching the students to shun
dowry or display of riches in social functions like marriage ... My ambition is to make them
good citizens," Mr Kumar told PTI in Patna.
The efforts have made their mark.
"I will not take dowry," said Pranab, son of a farmer from Samastipur, who is a
student at the institute. His classmate Abhishek from Jharkhand echoed similar views.
Super30 has won many accolades from across the globe for its success.
Recently University of Tokyo reached an agreement with it to sponsor two of its students.
Set up to help students from Bihar, the institute has expanded its horizon and has
selected students from other states like Punjab and Assam through competitive
examinations. more >>
