People have been flocking to big cities since time immemorial to seek better opportunities. The migrant population stranded in different cities across India and the chaos that ensued early in 2020 was proof of this. Fast forward to 2022 information accessible via the internet has led to a much-needed dissolution of borders.

A rather inspiring and refreshing example of this is Manish Kumar from Lyallpur Khalsa College, Jalandhar. Kumar who did his MBA from this college has managed to bag the role of Commercialisation Officer (Rice Fortification) with PATH, a non-profit international global health organization based in the USA. The office is based out of Seattle and they are expected to join shortly.

A lot of talented students, irrespective of their financial background, college, city/town, have managed to make a mark. Here are some examples:

Prem Kumar, a 12th-class student from Gonpura of Bihar received a 2.5 Cr scholarship from Lafayette College to complete his education in Pennsylvania, USA.
Bisakh Mondal, a student of Jadavpur University made it big by bagging a whooper salary package of INR 1.8 crore from Facebook! His father is a farmer while his mother works as an Anganwadi worker.
Aamir Qutub from Saharanpur turned his dreams into reality through his hard work and became a multi-millionaire. He was recently awarded the ‘Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award' in Australia.

These were just a few examples. Talent can be found everywhere and not only on the busy streets of big cities.
