“Remember Prem, our young Indian Ironman from Imphal? We promised to help him get the engineering education he wanted and I’m delighted to share that he has arrived at @MahindraUni in Hyderabad. Thank you Indigo for taking such good care of him,” the business tycoon tweeted. His share is complete with a few images.
He shared his post a day ago on November 16. Since being posted, the share has gathered over 2,300 likes and counting. It has also accumulated appreciative comments from people.
“Thank you for your encouragement and generosity. May he be able to make the most of this opportunity and become a world-class industrial designer. Blessings from Manipur!” wrote a Twitter user. “Thanks for encouraging this young promising lad from Manipur,” commented another. “Keep watering such talented youngsters today and tomorrow, INDIA will shine and rise!” expressed a third.
