Son of a panipuri vendor from Kalyan secures seat in IIT Roorkee
Harsh Gupta, a young boy from Kalyan whose father is a panipuri vendor, made it to the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology, (IIT) Roorkee. While for many, this achievement marks the beginning of a positive change for the six-member Gupta family living in two rented rooms in a chawl, his journey towards this exemplary success stands as a great example of resilience, determination, and diligence. Coming from a modest family background, the road was significantly tougher for Harsh than for many others preparing for the Joint Entrance Exam (JEE) – Main, the nationwide engineering entrance test that serves as a stepping stone to the JEE-Advanced, the gateway to IITs. Unlike most JEE aspirants who begin preparations during school, Harsh learned about the exam only after Class 10, where he scored above 90 per cent. Realising his passion for mathematics, Harsh decided to pursue engineering and joined Motion Education, a JEE coaching institute in Kota, Rajasthan. His first major setback came when he failed Class 11. 'I failed because I could not appear for a few papers due to my health condition,' said Harsh, who suffers from rectal prolapse—a painful and recurring medical condition that severely disrupted his studies, requiring frequent hospital visits and extended rest periods. Without getting demotivated, he continued his efforts and eventually passed Classes 11 and 12. 'Last year, I appeared for JEE-Main immediately after Class 12, but I did not qualify for JEE-Advanced. I was getting admission to a prestigious NIT, but my dream was different. I decided to take a gap year and prepare again,' said the 19-year-old who considered it only a small setback. This year, Harsh qualified for JEE-Advanced. His rank was 16,155 in the general category and 4,089 in the OBC category. He has now secured a seat in the Geotechnical Engineering branch at IIT Roorkee. However, in the upcoming admission round, he is hoping to secure a seat in Geophysical Engineering at the same institute, as he is more inclined towards that field. The decision to prepare for the exam, which included staying in Kota for nearly two and a half years, was solely taken by Harsh. 'It was impossible for anyone from my family to accompany me there. I stayed in the residential facility provided by the coaching institute,' said Harsh, adding that his dream to secure a seat in an IIT kept him going even during stressful times. 'Many students come to Kota with the same dream, but for a lot of them, it's not their own. They come with expectations from family and then feel pressured. I had no such pressure, which made it possible for me to pursue my dream, despite the challenges,' said Harsh, the eldest among three brothers. Both his younger brothers are focused on their studies. One, who is now in Class 12, hopes to follow in Harsh's footsteps, while the youngest, who just passed Class 10, is taking time to decide his path. Their parents run a panipuri stall in Kalyan, while their grandmother stays at home.

Struggling To Speak English? These 10 Practical Tips Actually Work
Speaking English confidently opens doors to global careers, smooth business interactions, and richer social experiences. Whether you're aiming for a role in an MNC or simply want to communicate more effectively, these ten strategies will help you sharpen your spoken English skills. 1. Master the Basics of Grammar A solid grasp of basic grammar gives structure to your sentences and boosts your confidence. Focus on common tenses (present, past, future), subject-verb agreement, and simple sentence patterns. Over time, correct grammar will become second nature. 2. Start Speaking-Even If It Feels Awkward Don't wait until you feel perfect. Begin by talking to yourself in English: describe your day, narrate what you're doing, or even read aloud. The more you speak, the more natural it becomes. Remember, mistakes are part of learning. 3. Read Regularly to Build Vocabulary Reading books, news articles, or blogs in English exposes you to new words and phrases in context. When you come across unfamiliar words, note them down and look up their meanings. A richer vocabulary makes it easier to express ideas when speaking. 4. Keep a Daily Journal Writing short entries in English helps you organise your thoughts and improves your ability to articulate them out loud. Try describing a memorable event or summarizing an article you read. Writing and speaking reinforce each other. 5. Listen Actively Immerse yourself in English by listening to podcasts, audiobooks, or news broadcasts. Pay attention to pronunciation, intonation, and rhythm. Repeating what you hear will train your ear and tongue to produce more natural speech. 6. Join an English-Speaking Group Find or form a conversation circle-online or in your community-where everyone practices speaking English. Regular group discussions create a supportive space to try new vocabulary and receive feedback. 7. Leverage Technology and Apps Apps connect you with language partners and interactive exercises. Use pronunciation tools and speech-recognition features to get real-time feedback on your spoken English. 8. Watch Movies and TV Shows Watching content in English (with subtitles at first) helps you learn everyday phrases and cultural expressions. Try mimicking actors' lines to practice pronunciation and intonation. News channels are also great for formal vocabulary. 9. Use a Dictionary Daily Make it a habit to learn at least one new word each day. Note its pronunciation, meaning, and usage. Over time, these small steps significantly expand your active vocabulary. 10. Practice Consistently Language skills grow with regular practice. Set aside 15-20 minutes daily to speak, listen, read, or write in English. Consistency beats cramming-steady effort leads to lasting fluency. By combining these ten tips-grammar, speaking, reading, writing, listening, group practice, technology, media, vocabulary building, and routine practice-you'll see steady improvement in your spoken English.

New to English? These 10 essential grammar rules will keep your language flawless
Learning English grammar can feel overwhelming, but certain mistakes appear repeatedly amongst new speakers. These errors aren't random—they follow predictable patterns that you can learn to avoid. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Understanding these ten essential rules will dramatically improve how you sound when speaking or writing English. These grammar patterns form the foundation of clear English communication. When you get them right, people understand you better, and you sound more natural. When you get them wrong, your meaning can become confusing or unclear. 1. Use only one subject per sentence Wrong: My brother he is a doctor. Right: My brother is a doctor. In English, you name the subject once. Don't add extra words like "he," "she," or "they" when you've already said who you're talking about. This rule applies to all sentences. Practice: Say "My sister works in a bank" not "My sister she works in a bank." 2. Use do/does/did for questions and negatives Wrong: He not like it. / You like it? Right: He does not like it. / Do you like it? English requires helper words (do, does, did) when making questions or saying "no" in simple tenses. These words are not optional—you must use them. Simple rule: Present tense: use "do" or "does" Past tense: use "did" 3. Add "-ing" after prepositions Wrong: He is good at play football. Right: He is good at playing football. Prepositions are words like "at," "in," "for," "of," "by," "with." When a verb comes after these words, it must end in "-ing." Common examples: I'm interested in learning English She's tired of working late He's excited about visiting Paris 4. Use "to + base verb" after certain verbs Wrong: I want going home. Right: I want to go home. Some verbs need "to" plus the basic form of another verb. Learn these common verbs: want, need, hope, plan, decide, try, forget, remember. Examples: I need to study She hopes to travel We plan to meet 5. Every sentence needs a subject Wrong: Is raining. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Right: It is raining. English sentences must have a subject, even when it's not obvious. Use "it" when talking about weather, time, or distance. Weather examples: It is sunny It was cold yesterday It will rain tomorrow 6. Use "much" and "many" correctly Wrong: I have much friends. Right: I have many friends. Use "many" for things you can count (friends, books, cars). Use "much" for things you cannot count (water, time, money). Countable: many friends, many books, many problems Uncountable: much water, much time, much money 7. Choose the right adjective ending Wrong: I am boring. Right: I am bored. Adjectives with "-ed" describe how you feel. Adjectives with "-ing" describe what causes the feeling. How you feel: bored, tired, excited, interested What causes it: boring, tiring, exciting, interesting Example: The film is boring, so I am bored. 8. Put adverbs in the right place Wrong: He always is late. Right: He is always late. Adverbs like "always," "usually," "never," "often" go: After "be" verbs (am, is, are, was, were) Before other verbs Examples: She is always happy (after "be") He always arrives early (before other verbs) 9. Choose "a" or "an" by sound Wrong: He is an university student. Right: He is a university student. Use "a" before consonant sounds and "an" before vowel sounds. Listen to the first sound, not the first letter. "A" examples: a university (sounds like "yu"), a European, a one-way street "An" examples: an elephant, an honest person, an hour 10. Watch out for tricky phrases Wrong: I look forward to see you. Right: I look forward to seeing you. Some phrases end with "to" but need "-ing" verbs, not infinitives. Common phrases include: look forward to be used to get used to Examples: I'm used to working late She's looking forward to meeting you The golden rule: don't translate word-for-word English has its own structure that may be different from your native language. Instead of translating each word, learn English sentence patterns directly. Practice tip: Read English sentences out loud and notice the patterns. The more you see correct English, the more natural these rules become. Building your foundation These ten rules form the foundation of clear English grammar. Focus on one rule at a time, practise it in your daily conversations, and gradually add the others. Remember, making mistakes is part of learning but knowing these patterns will help you avoid the most common errors that new English speakers make. With consistent practice, these rules will some to you naturally, and you'll speak with greater confidence and clarity.
