Success Story: At most any person takes a master’s degree after bachelor’s. If you progress beyond that, then you can pursue M.Phil or PhD. It can be understood that a person can choose only one profession. But there is one person from India who not only obtained many degrees but also became an IAS, doctor, lawyer and many other things. You will get tired of counting, but this person’s degrees and profession will never end.
We are talking about Shrikant Jichkar. He studied in 42 universities and obtained more than 20 degrees. All these degrees were graduates from different universities. His name is also recorded in the Limca Book of Records as the most educated person in India.
IPS and IAS also remained
Shrikant, a resident of Maharashtra, was born in 1954 in a farmer family of Nagpur. During his studies, he appeared for 42 university exams and passed 20. The special thing is that he had won first division or gold medal in most of the examinations. Let us tell you that Jichkar first became an IPS, then resigned and passed the IAS exam.
Reached the assembly at the age of 25
He resigned from here too and started his political journey and at the age of 25, he reluctantly reached the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly in 1980. Jichkar was the youngest leader of the state at that time to do this. After MLA, he also became ML and Rajya Sabha member. Jichkar was also a minister in the Maharashtra government. He had charge of 14 ministries.
Died at the age of 49
Jichkar is also known for his personal library. There were 52 thousand books in his library. At that time, the record of the largest book collection was also in his name. What Jichkar was not, he was a brilliant photographer and actor. However, it is a matter of regret that the life of the most educated person in India did not last long. He died in a car accident at the age of just 49.
