A British teenager of South Asian origin has won a television reality show, which includes £25,000 “pocket money” fund to launch his business career.
Seventeen-year-old student of Ilford County High School, Arjun Rajyagor won the BBC’s Junior Apprentice programme hosted by British tycoon Lord Alan Sugar. Over 28,000 had applied to take part in the programme and only 10 made the cut to appear in the reality show.
“It’s been an amazing opportunity and I can’t believe I’m the first Junior Apprentice,” Arjun said.

largest gold coin set for auction
Vienna: The largest gold coin in the world — measuring 53 cm in diameter and weighing 100 kg — will go on sale on June 25 in Vienna, auction house Dorotheum said on Friday.
The Maple Leaf coin, which is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records and carries a face value of one million Canadian dollars, was minted in Canada in 2007.
The auction price is expected to comfortably exceed the face value due to the current high price of gold. —AFP
