Vashishta Narayan Singh
Vashishta Narayan Singh (1946–2019) was a mathematician from Bihar. The son of a police constable, Singh had proved his genius at an early age and gained admission to the Netarhat Residential School, a prestigious institution that produced state toppers. In college, Singh often quizzed and contradicted his lecturers. So impressed was the principal with his talent that he let Singh skip two years ahead and appear for the final year B.Sc. examination. He went on to earn his PhD in mathematics in USA from the University of California, Berkeley. He was only 23. It is said that he once worked at NASA and did some calculations when the machines stopped working. When the machines started functioning, his calculations matched those of the machines. He returned to India and worked briefly with institutions like IIT-Kanpur and Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. Unfortunately, before he could soar to the heights of greatness, his career was cut short by a long battle with schizophrenia. Once he even went missing for four years. Singh was awarded the Padma Shri posthumously in 2020.Destined for the skies
