Prince Kumar can breathe a sigh of relief as all his hard work paid off. The overall government school topper in Delhi said he still couldn’t believe his eyes after seeing the result. “I am the son of a DTC bus driver. I never expected this… Now I have media people calling me,” he was quoted as saying by Hindustan Times.
According to Prince Kumar, the government schools has changed its approach over the years which helped him to secure the top-notch score. Hard work, determination and perseverance can steer you to touch the pinnacle of success. The teachers have been very helpful to him. “The kids at these schools may come from a particular socio-economic background.
But our teachers and facilities are almost as good as private schools. All teachers are well qualified, and they help us out,” said the student of the Rajkiya Pratibha Vikas Vidyalaya in Dwarka’s Sector 10. Prince now aims to pursue an electronics and communications engineering degree and has successfully cleared his JEE (Mains).
