When in college, I helped father in field: Sivan

Isro chairman Kailasavadivoo Sivan is the first graduate in his family. His brother and two sisters were unable to complete higher education due to poverty. "When I was in college, I used to help my father in the field. That was the reason he got me admitted in a college near our house," Sivan told TOI. "Only when I had completed my BSc (Mathematics) with 100% marks, his mind changed."
