On February 12, he successfully passed the Installing, Configuring and Administering Microsoft 2000 Professional Examinations held in Bangalore.
The family has written to the Guinness Book of World Records to acknowledge Mridul as the youngest person to earn the Microsoft degree.
Last year, when Prime Minister A.B. Vajpayee visited Sikkim, he felicitated Mridul.
Talking about the boy’s achievement, Amar Nath, a Bangalore-based telecommunications consultant told The Telegraph over phone: “Cracking the Microsoft test is a feat that is even difficult for adults to achieve. For a child of eight to pass that test is unimaginable.”
