Jayant Parab, a 16-year old boy, is a class IX dropout from Ghatkopar. He enjoys staying alone and experiments with the scrap. He has assembled a 9-inch computer literally with the waste.
His father collects computers and other hardware parts that are old and inoperative from hospitals, schools and offices.
He says,
“I want to make affordable computers. The computer I have made is from the leftovers from offices, banks and hospitals.”
He aims to build more affordable computers for underprivileged kids like him. He is dedicated to this impossible job. The young guy is also learning ethical hacking and security systems. He dreams to revolutionize the E-waste industry. His father, Ravindra, was highly disappointed when he failed. But, today he is a proud father and helps his son by collecting old and unusable e-waste from various places. Even the experts are in awe of his achievements.
A small-time scrap dealer
As a child, Jayant accompanied his dad in collecting the leftover scrap from several places. His father narrates, “He picked up things he thought he could use at home. In Std V, he repaired a laptop that an office had disposed of. That was the time I sort of knew that he would end up in the field of computers.”
What do you think about the genius young boy who is blessed with immense knowledge at the age of sixteen?
