With only three days before his crucial exams of the board of directors, a student found himself in a hopeless situation. His school refused to issue his admission card due to Rs 54,000 in unpaid costs, leaving his future suspended by a thread. Despite the repeated pleadings of his parents, the school refused to reconsider. Without any other option, his brother, Surav, turned to social media to get help – and what happened then restored faith in humanity.
The incident drew attention when Aaryansh, a man based in Delhi, shared history on X (formerly Twitter). He explained how a simple direct message led to an act of extraordinary kindness.
“Yesterday, I obtained a DM on Twitter from someone who asks for help,” wrote Aaryansh in his article. “His brother was refused an admission card for his examination of the board of directors because their school had not received the costs of 54,000 ₹ in progress.”
The boy’s parents were at school, arguing with the administration to issue the admission card because the exam was only a few days old. But the school refused to move. “I couldn’t just sit down, so I decided to help,” added Aaryansh. He collected the support of two others – Mamoni Ojha and Sny_259 – and contacted Arun Bothra, the Director General of Police (ADGP) of the concerned.
While checking the situation was underway, something unexpected happened. “An anonymous Twitter account has contacted the admission number, and without saying a lot, paid the costs on the school website directly,” wrote Aaryansh. “No questions, no expectations, just a simple” all the best! “For the student.”
In a few hours, the problem was resolved. The costs of 54,000 ₹ were paid and the student received his admission card in time to take his exams from the board of directors. The news sent undulations on X, with users renting the anonymous donor and the group’s rapid intervention.
A user commented: “Large applause to the person who presented himself to help. No one should be deprived of the opportunity to learn, grow and build a better future.” Another added: “It’s so healthy. Humanity prevails. Congratulations to you all for your efforts, which saved the career of an aspirant.”
For Surav, who is preparing for the Jee and recently marked a 97 centile during the January attempt, the incident returned hope for the future of his family. His brother can now appear for his council exams without the imminent fear of being left out.
