An Indian who found flaws within Google itself.
Rituraj Chaudhary from Bihar, who studied at IIT SY in Manipur, hacked Google for 53 seconds. Google executives and engineers across the world could not understand what had happened. The cause of the hack could not be identified. Rituraj restarted the system and emailed Google saying, ‘Because of this flaw in your software, I was able to hack it’. When the officials conducted checks, they discovered a major flaw in the software. An emergency meeting lasting 12 hours was held in the United States and an email was sent praising Rituraj’s talent and offering him a job at Google. He was also issued an appointment letter with a salary of 3.66 crore rupees.
Officials said they would come to India to take him with them. But Rituraj didn’t even have a passport. The American government spoke with the Indian government and arranged two emergency passports, delivered directly to his home. Monday, Rituraj is set to fly to America on a private jet. An Indian who found flaws within Google itself.
Victory to India.
