Now and then, we come across many videos on the internet and the internet surely churns out stories of unique people all over the country. The Internet is one of the best places for people who are not only inspiring but have a unique story as well. There are many such stories and videos in the interest which are shared so that the people can gain recognition for their talents. Well, similarly, Suranjan Karmakar, who is an e-rickshaw (toto) puller from Liluah, Howrah, is one such person who will make you amazed with his knowledge and also the eagerness he carries to learn more.
A post that was shared on Facebook by the user, named Sankalan Sarkar, gave some details about his toto ride in Karmakar’s toto. “Today I met one of the most interesting people I’ve ever come across in Liluah. We were traveling on his Toto (battery run e-rickshaw, for those who haven’t been on one) to Rangoli Mall when suddenly he turned around and asked us, ‘I’ll let go of the fare if you can answer 15 general knowledge questions that I’m going to ask you.’,” Sarkar explains in the caption of the video which he uploaded.
During their ride, Karmakar asked Sarkar many such GK questions, such as ‘Who is the first chief minister of Bengal’, and continued to quiz him on a wide range of topics. And it has to be said that Sarkar was thoroughly impressed. But that’s not all, Karmakar went ahead, and then he shared that he had to drop out of school when he was in the sixth standard but even though he dropped out of the school, that didn’t diminish his thirst for knowledge. As a member of the Liluah Book Fair Foundation, Karmakar keeps laminated photographs of historical as well as eminent personalities on his e-rickshaw and he also wears a skull cap affiliated with Islam to let people know that he embraces both Hinduism and Islam. How amazing!
This video has impressed everyone on the Internet and thus the netizens have been praising him continuously and sharing the video all over social media platforms. As the netizens were left surprised that the force has received many likes and also comments and thus it is shared on other social media platforms too.
