&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;Poverty could not rein in the spirit of this youth and hold him back from fighting his way through all odds.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Unlike many youngsters in his neighbourhood who had resigned to fate, Monoranjan Bera worked hard to change his destiny. Bera has ranked 50th in the IIT entrance examination to a joint MSc-PhD programme.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Bera, living in a single room tenement at Bhatapukur in Kharagpur, can serve as an example to youngsters.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;One needs to visit his house to perceive of Bera&#039;s determination. The single-room tenement is little more than a shanty in a slum, primarily inhabited by tribals. I know him from childhood and his perseverance became evident when he scored 409 in the Higher Secondary examinations and topped the list in Kharagpur. In college, his first year results weren&#039;t too good but Bera didn&#039;t give up. He has kept up the hard work and we expect him to score over 60% in the final exams that are on,&amp;quot; said Uttam Ghosh, who taught Bera at the Midnapore College.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Bera says that he had always wanted to go in for research or take up teaching as a career. After completing school from Inda Krishnalal Shiksha Niketan, he took up Chemistry (Hons) at Midnapore College. Along with his regular studies, Bera prepared for joint admission test for MSc 2012 (JAM 2012). He cracked JAM 2012, organized by the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, for itself and seven other IITs at Delhi, Kharagpur, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kanpur, Madras and Roorkee.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t afford private tuitions so I continued studying at home. My professors, particularly Tridib Tripathy, who taught me Organic Chemistry in college and our former teacher Amalendu Ghoshal, supported me a lot. I also received a lot of financial support from Ujjal Sengupta, a social worker who lives nearby. I still don&#039;t know how much I will have to pay for the course. We will have to fill-up and submit a form by May 25 after which the details will become clear. I would certainly like to study at IIT, Kharagpur as the other expenses involved will be less,&amp;quot; said Bera. His father runs a pan shop on OT Road while his mother works as a farm labourer during the harvesting season.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Sengupta and his wife Chaitali came to know of Bera when he was in school and helped him with books, clothes and fees. &amp;quot;He got through to an engineering college in Kolaghat after his HS but Bera preferred to study Chemistry at Midnapore College. He has made us proud by cracking JAM 2012,&amp;quot; Sengupta said. IIT, Kharagpur introduced the joint MSc- PhD course in Chemistry in 2009-10. According to Bera, the programme offers a borderless course structure with opportunity to pursue cuttingedge interdisciplinary research.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
It involves course work in the first two years, while research project begins from the third semester.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
According to IIT, Kharagpur sources, the MSc and PhD graduates find placements in high-ranking universities and institutes in India, USA and Europe. They are also in high demand in industries.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;Poverty could not rein in the spirit of this youth and hold him back from fighting his way through all odds.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Unlike many youngsters in his neighbourhood who had resigned to fate, Monoranjan Bera worked hard to change his destiny. Bera has ranked 50th in the IIT entrance examination to a joint MSc-PhD programme.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Bera, living in a single room tenement at Bhatapukur in Kharagpur, can serve as an example to youngsters.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;One needs to visit his house to perceive of Bera&#039;s determination. The single-room tenement is little more than a shanty in a slum, primarily inhabited by tribals. I know him from childhood and his perseverance became evident when he scored 409 in the Higher Secondary examinations and topped the list in Kharagpur. In college, his first year results weren&#039;t too good but Bera didn&#039;t give up. He has kept up the hard work and we expect him to score over 60% in the final exams that are on,&amp;quot; said Uttam Ghosh, who taught Bera at the Midnapore College.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Bera says that he had always wanted to go in for research or take up teaching as a career. After completing school from Inda Krishnalal Shiksha Niketan, he took up Chemistry (Hons) at Midnapore College. Along with his regular studies, Bera prepared for joint admission test for MSc 2012 (JAM 2012). He cracked JAM 2012, organized by the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, for itself and seven other IITs at Delhi, Kharagpur, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kanpur, Madras and Roorkee.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t afford private tuitions so I continued studying at home. My professors, particularly Tridib Tripathy, who taught me Organic Chemistry in college and our former teacher Amalendu Ghoshal, supported me a lot. I also received a lot of financial support from Ujjal Sengupta, a social worker who lives nearby. I still don&#039;t know how much I will have to pay for the course. We will have to fill-up and submit a form by May 25 after which the details will become clear. I would certainly like to study at IIT, Kharagpur as the other expenses involved will be less,&amp;quot; said Bera. His father runs a pan shop on OT Road while his mother works as a farm labourer during the harvesting season.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Sengupta and his wife Chaitali came to know of Bera when he was in school and helped him with books, clothes and fees. &amp;quot;He got through to an engineering college in Kolaghat after his HS but Bera preferred to study Chemistry at Midnapore College. He has made us proud by cracking JAM 2012,&amp;quot; Sengupta said. IIT, Kharagpur introduced the joint MSc- PhD course in Chemistry in 2009-10. According to Bera, the programme offers a borderless course structure with opportunity to pursue cuttingedge interdisciplinary research.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
It involves course work in the first two years, while research project begins from the third semester.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
According to IIT, Kharagpur sources, the MSc and PhD graduates find placements in high-ranking universities and institutes in India, USA and Europe. They are also in high demand in industries.

&amp;nbsp;Poverty could not rein in the spirit of this youth and hold him back from fighting his way through all odds.&amp;nbsp;

The single-room tenement is little more than a shanty in a slum, primarily inhabited by tribals. I know him from childhood and his perseverance became evident when he scored 409 in the Higher Secondary examinations and topped the list in Kharagpur. In college, his first year results weren&#039;t too good but Bera didn&#039;t give up. He has kept up the hard work and we expect him to score over 60% in the final exams that are on,&amp;quot; said Uttam Ghosh, who taught Bera at the Midnapore College.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;Bera says that he had always wanted to go in for research or take up teaching as a career. After completing school from Inda Krishnalal Shiksha Niketan, he took up Chemistry (Hons) at Midnapore College. Along with his regular studies, Bera prepared for joint admission test for MSc 2012 (JAM 2012). He cracked JAM 2012, organized by the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, for itself and seven other IITs at Delhi, Kharagpur, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kanpur, Madras and Roorkee.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t afford private tuitions so I continued studying at home. My professors, particularly Tridib Tripathy, who taught me Organic Chemistry in college and our former teacher Amalendu Ghoshal, supported me a lot. I also received a lot of financial support from Ujjal Sengupta, a social worker who lives nearby. I still don&#039;t know how much I will have to pay for the course. We will have to fill-up and submit a form by May 25 after which the details will become clear. I would certainly like to study at IIT, Kharagpur as the other expenses involved will be less,&amp;quot; said Bera. His father runs a pan shop on OT Road while his mother works as a farm labourer during the harvesting season.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;Sengupta and his wife Chaitali came to know of Bera when he was in school and helped him with books, clothes and fees. &amp;quot;He got through to an engineering college in Kolaghat after his HS but Bera preferred to study Chemistry at Midnapore College.

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Unlike many youngsters in his neighbourhood who had resigned to fate, Monoranjan Bera worked hard to change his destiny. Bera has ranked 50th in the IIT entrance examination to a joint MSc-PhD programme.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Bera, living in a single room tenement at Bhatapukur in Kharagpur, can serve as an example to youngsters.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;One needs to visit his house to perceive of Bera&#039;s determination. The single-room tenement is little more than a shanty in a slum, primarily inhabited by tribals. I know him from childhood and his perseverance became evident when he scored 409 in the Higher Secondary examinations and topped the list in Kharagpur. In college, his first year results weren&#039;t too good but Bera didn&#039;t give up. He has kept up the hard work and we expect him to score over 60% in the final exams that are on,&amp;quot; said Uttam Ghosh, who taught Bera at the Midnapore College.&amp;nbsp;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Bera says that he had always wanted to go in for research or take up teaching as a career. After completing school from Inda Krishnalal Shiksha Niketan, he took up Chemistry (Hons) at Midnapore College. Along with his regular studies, Bera prepared for joint admission test for MSc 2012 (JAM 2012).

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t afford private tuitions so I continued studying at home. My professors, particularly Tridib Tripathy, who taught me Organic Chemistry in college and our former teacher Amalendu Ghoshal, supported me a lot. I also received a lot of financial support from Ujjal Sengupta, a social worker who lives nearby. I still don&#039;t know how much I will have to pay for the course.

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
It involves course work in the first two years, while research project begins from the third semester.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;

&amp;nbsp;Poverty could not rein in the spirit of this youth and hold him back from fighting his way through all odds.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Unlike many youngsters in his neighbourhood who had resigned to fate, Monoranjan Bera worked hard to change his destiny. Bera has ranked 50th in the IIT entrance examination to a joint MSc-PhD programme.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Bera, living in a single room tenement at Bhatapukur in Kharagpur, can serve as an example to youngsters.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;One needs to visit his house to perceive of Bera&#039;s determination. The single-room tenement is little more than a shanty in a slum, primarily inhabited by tribals. I know him from childhood and his perseverance became evident when he scored 409 in the Higher Secondary examinations and topped the list in Kharagpur. In college, his first year results weren&#039;t too good but Bera didn&#039;t give up. He has kept up the hard work and we expect him to score over 60% in the final exams that are on,&amp;quot; said Uttam Ghosh, who taught Bera at the Midnapore College.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Bera says that he had always wanted to go in for research or take up teaching as a career. After completing school from Inda Krishnalal Shiksha Niketan, he took up Chemistry (Hons) at Midnapore College. Along with his regular studies, Bera prepared for joint admission test for MSc 2012 (JAM 2012). He cracked JAM 2012, organized by the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, for itself and seven other IITs at Delhi, Kharagpur, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kanpur, Madras and Roorkee.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;quot;I couldn&#039;t afford private tuitions so I continued studying at home. My professors, particularly Tridib Tripathy, who taught me Organic Chemistry in college and our former teacher Amalendu Ghoshal, supported me a lot. I also received a lot of financial support from Ujjal Sengupta, a social worker who lives nearby. I still don&#039;t know how much I will have to pay for the course. We will have to fill-up and submit a form by May 25 after which the details will become clear. I would certainly like to study at IIT, Kharagpur as the other expenses involved will be less,&amp;quot; said Bera. His father runs a pan shop on OT Road while his mother works as a farm labourer during the harvesting season.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Sengupta and his wife Chaitali came to know of Bera when he was in school and helped him with books, clothes and fees. &amp;quot;He got through to an engineering college in Kolaghat after his HS but Bera preferred to study Chemistry at Midnapore College. He has made us proud by cracking JAM 2012,&amp;quot; Sengupta said. IIT, Kharagpur introduced the joint MSc- PhD course in Chemistry in 2009-10. According to Bera, the programme offers a borderless course structure with opportunity to pursue cuttingedge interdisciplinary research.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
It involves course work in the first two years, while research project begins from the third semester.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
According to IIT, Kharagpur sources, the MSc and PhD graduates find placements in high-ranking universities and institutes in India, USA and Europe. They are also in high demand in industries.

We will have to fill-up and submit a form by May 25 after which the details will become clear. I would certainly like to study at IIT, Kharagpur as the other expenses involved will be less,&amp;quot; said Bera. His father runs a pan shop on OT Road while his mother works as a farm labourer during the harvesting season.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Sengupta and his wife Chaitali came to know of Bera when he was in school and helped him with books, clothes and fees. &amp;quot;He got through to an engineering college in Kolaghat after his HS but Bera preferred to study Chemistry at Midnapore College. He has made us proud by cracking JAM 2012,&amp;quot; Sengupta said. IIT, Kharagpur introduced the joint MSc- PhD course in Chemistry in 2009-10. According to Bera, the programme offers a borderless course structure with opportunity to pursue cuttingedge interdisciplinary research.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
It involves course work in the first two years, while research project begins from the third semester.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
According to IIT, Kharagpur sources, the MSc and PhD graduates find placements in high-ranking universities and institutes in India, USA and Europe. They are also in high demand in industries.

Slum boy fights all odds to crack IIT entrance-Jayanta Gupta

Poverty could not rein in the spirit of this youth and hold him back from fighting his way through all odds.  Unlike many youngsters in his neighbourhood who had resigned to fate, Monoranjan Bera worked hard to change his destiny. Bera has ranked 50th in the IIT entrance examination to a joint MSc-PhD programme.  Bera, living in a single room tenement at Bhatapukur in Kharagpur, can serve as an example to youngsters.  "One needs to visit his house to perceive of Bera's determination. The single-room tenement is little more than a shanty in a slum, primarily inhabited by tribals. I know him from childhood and his perseverance became evident when he scored 409 in the Higher Secondary examinations and topped the list in Kharagpur. In college, his first year results weren't too good but Bera didn't give up. He has kept up the hard work and we expect him to score over 60% in the final exams that are on," said Uttam Ghosh, who taught Bera at the Midnapore College.  Bera says that he had always wanted to go in for research or take up teaching as a career. After completing school from Inda Krishnalal Shiksha Niketan, he took up Chemistry (Hons) at Midnapore College. Along with his regular studies, Bera prepared for joint admission test for MSc 2012 (JAM 2012). He cracked JAM 2012, organized by the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, for itself and seven other IITs at Delhi, Kharagpur, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kanpur, Madras and Roorkee.  "I couldn't afford private tuitions so I continued studying at home.
