Anand Kumar said after receiving the Padma Shri
Bihar’s famous mathematician Professor Anand Kumar has been honored with Padma Shri by President Draupadi Murmu. After receiving the Padma Shri, Anand Kumar said, ‘I have received the Padma Shri award in the field of education and literature. I am teaching children in Patna since last 20 years. Kids who don’t have facilities, don’t have resources and they prepare for IIT. Hundreds of my educated children are doing jobs in good places in the country and abroad. Anand Kumar said that he is feeling very good.
Receive call on mobile for reward
He said I was solving a math problem. Suddenly I got a call on my mobile, in which Delhi was written. So I thought who is calling. When I picked up the phone, I was told that he was talking to the Home Ministry. Then he told me that I was being given the Padma Shri award. At first I didn’t believe it. Then I asked him again, only then I believed. After this I told my brother, mother, wife and everyone in the house.
