Those who need inspiration to achieve success without being bogged down by obstacles can take a leaf or two out of Sreenath K’s book.
Sreenath, a coolie at Kerala’s Ernakulam Junction, has just cleared the written test of the Kerala Public Service Commission.
After passing out of high school, he was forced to take up the job of a porter to run his family, but he never felt things couldn’t get better than that.
When Ernakulam station got free Wifi service, Sreenath downloaded the digital study material and studied them even as he was carrying luggage throughout the day. In fact, he would often “listen” to the lessons in his phone while ferrying the goods amidst the cacophony of the railway station. At night, he would revise them all over again, it was reported.
Once he clears an interview, Sreenath is likely to be village field assistant under the land revenue department.
