Santosh's mother was a farm laborer and his father was a mason, thus even though he was raised in poverty, they taught him the importance of perseverance. 

This is the remarkable story of DSP Santosh Kumar Patel, who rose from the challenges of poverty in a small village in Madhya Pradesh to achieve the 22nd rank in the MPPSC and fulfill his dream of becoming a police officer.

Santosh grew up in a temporary shed with his family. He faced several financial problems in his life but stood strong in the face of adversity.
