Book on Super 30 founder Anand Kumar to be published in French and Korean

A book covering the life and achievements of Super 30 founder Anand Kumar is all set to be published in French and Korean. Biju Mathew, a Canadian psychiatrist, who wrote the book in association with Arun Kumar, made the announcement on Saturday. The book titled "Super 30" after its publication in English and Hindi has already been published in Marathi and Tamil, Mathew said.

"Before meeting Anand, I got to know of him through newspapers in Canada about the huge work he was doing for the students from underprivileged sections of the society and invited him for a social function. His address at the function impressed me as well as others and I asked him if I could write a book on him," he said. The book is an example of how strong will and perseverance could help one overcome the stiffest of odds, as Anand Kumar has proved," he said.

"It is an inspiration for all those who are not privileged but have a desire to script a success story. What the students of Super 30 have achieved tells a lot about the real silent social revolution, which has brought about generational change in many families," he added.

Mathew said that he also plans a sequel after a few years.
