Q4. How would you like to contribute to the society and the world when you become a successful?
Since my childhood, I have been studying in government institutions — first in a state government school and then in Navodaya.

Q5. Describe an incident in your life that has motivated/inspired you to do better
My only motivation is my parents. When my father returns home from work, his tired face always reminds me how hardworking he is. He never shows his pain to any of us. He sacrificed his dreams and provided us everything and made our childhood the best. He always supported and motivated us to do our best. So I want to make him feel proud and show that his hard work in raising me was worth it.
