From a Mining Engineering Student to Founder

How frustration with broken tools turned into two platforms serving thousands of Indians.

Hi, I'm Vicky Kumar — a passionate engineer and self-taught web developer from India. I completed my B.Tech in Mining Engineering in 2025, and I'm currently pursuing my M.Tech in Mining and Mineral Engineering at IIEST Shibpur, which I'll complete in 2027.

Engineering taught me one thing above everything else: identify a problem, then build the solution. I Hate PDF was born exactly like that — out of genuine frustration. Every time I needed to quickly merge a PDF, resize an image, or compress a document, the available "free" online tools were either packed with watermarks, demanded signups, limited file sizes, or uploaded private files to unknown servers.

"Engineering is not just about solving textbook problems — it's about solving real-world problems that people face every single day."

As an engineering student, I was constantly dealing with PDF documents — assignments, reports, project submissions, admit cards, marksheets. The struggle was real. So I decided to build a tool that actually works the way a student needs — completely free, completely private, no watermarks, no signup.

GovExam came next. I saw thousands of students around me preparing for SSC CGL, IBPS, SBI, Railway and PSC exams without access to quality free resources. Expensive coaching, paywalled mock tests and scattered material were barriers I wanted to remove. GovExam is my answer — a completely free, comprehensive platform for every government exam aspirant in India.

Why I Built These Platforms

Three core beliefs that drive every decision at GovExam and I Hate PDF.

🆓

Always Free

Knowledge and essential tools should never have a price tag. Every student deserves access regardless of their financial background.

🔒

Privacy First

Your files are yours. No uploads to unknown servers, no data collection — everything processed right in your browser, privately.

🇮🇳

Made for India

Built specifically for Indian students and professionals — from engineering students to SSC CGL and banking exam aspirants.

I built I Hate PDF and GovExam because I believe powerful tools should be free for everyone — especially students and working professionals in India who shouldn't have to pay hundreds of rupees every month just to merge a PDF, resize an image, or access quality government exam preparation material.
