Fateh Singh, who taught himself coding by watching YouTube tutorials, has developed over 50 websites and launched his own startup, <em>Padharo Bazaar<\/em>\u00a0(Digital Shop), which is providing an online platform for local shopkeepers to reach customers directly.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">The idea, conceived during his school days, aims at strengthening local trade by offering an alternative to multinational e-commerce platforms. Through his initiative, residents of Pali can order goods online and have them delivered within an hour.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">The Rajasthan government recognised his efforts, with the Chief Minister himself honouring him and awarding a cash prize. Most recently, his venture earned a place in the top-20 startups of Rajasthan during the IT Day 2025 celebrations at the Rajasthan International Centre in Jaipur. The jury of the Business Innovation Program-Pitch Battle praised the project for its potential to bolster the state\u2019s local economy.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Fateh Singh recalls that the idea first took shape while he was preparing for his Class 12 examinations, when his teacher, Raju Sir, introduced him to the concept of startups and government support available for young innovators. Encouraged by the inputs, he registered his startup and was allotted a workplace by the state under its innovation programme.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">\u201cIn college, my teacher said that there are many problems around us, they can be solved by a startup. In such a situation, I understood that today is the time of the digital age,&#8221; Singh said while he shared how the thought of creating a platform to spread digital awareness among kids came to his mind. \u201cI learned to make websites from YouTube. Later I have made websites of 50 shops in Pali city. My startup \u2018Digital Dukaan\u2019 was selected, which was also appreciated by the Chief Minister,&#8221; Fateh Singh told Local18.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">His college principal, Mahendra Singh Rajpurohit, lauded the young entrepreneur. \u201cI have seen passion in Fateh Singh, who is a BCA first year student, right from the beginning. When we talked to him about his self-employment, we came to know that he wants to move ahead and work right from his student life. Therefore, we tried to get him better results. As a result of that, he got the idea of making a website after watching YouTube, in which he has made more than 50 websites. The Rajasthan government also honoured him,&#8221; he said, adding that such students inspire entire campuses.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">By translating international tutorial videos into Hindi, Fateh Singh mastered coding skills with limited resources. His mission is clear \u2013 empower local shopkeepers, encourage self-reliance and ensure that India\u2019s money stays within the country.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">Having already carved out a niche in the startup ecosystem of Rajasthan, Fateh Singh is now planning to expand <em>Padharo Bazaar<\/em>, connect more shops across the district, and launch a mobile application.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-c9f81425ec968c48 jsx-3621980785 atbtlink Location\"><span>Location :<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Pali, India, India<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-c9f81425ec968c48 jsx-3621980785 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>September 16, 2025, 18:04 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-c9f81425ec968c48 jsx-3621980785 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/education-career\/\">education-career<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> &#8216;Reels Boy&#8217; To IT Prodigy: How A Self-Taught Coder Built 50+ Websites, Launched His Own Startup<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
