Kochi: In a remarkable achievement, a Malayali student in the UK has scripted history by becoming the first Keralite to win the students’ union president election at King’s College London.
Steven Suresh, son of Ernakulam natives Suresh and Simi, has been elected as the president of the college students’ union and will be granted a salary of Rs 28.5 lakh for one year. He is a BA Politics, Philosophy and Economy (PPE) student at the college.
Reportedly, Steven faced the polls by releasing an election manifesto underling the issues of racism and gender equality. He had also put forward the issue of the need to increase the instalments for paying fees.
“I hope that my achievement will be an inspiration to those Malayali students hoping to reach this position,” said Steven, who will be aided by five vice-presidents to carry out his responsibilities.
