There is a cycle in the backdrop, clothes on the hanging line, a handpump too, asbestos sheets for roof but this seller of clothes from Bihar has his focus elsewhere. He is busy accepting congratulations as his son just secured rank 45 in the prestigious Civil Services Examination.
Anil Bosak, an IIT Delhi graduate from the 2018 batch, cleared the exam in his third attempt. He is a native of Kishanganj district in Bihar.

"He first qualified for the IIT. We were very happy. I thought now he will work. But he said he will prepare for the UPSC. His teacher also helped him a lot, he even offered to help monetarily," said Binod Bosak, his father, who makes a living selling clothes on bicycle.
Mr Bosak termed the success of his son a "dream".
"It was very difficult (initially). I think this is a dream. I am not educated," said his father, encouraging others to help their child and emphasising that they too will find success.
