Ranjim, a COVID survivor, tops JEE (Main), says 'I follow Elon Musk'

Despite being infected by COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Ranjim Prabal Das from Assam and a current resident of Delhi was determined to crack the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main 2021.

He is among the six students from across the country to have secured 100 percentile score in the JEE Main February session.

While speaking to ANI in the national capital, Ranjim said, "I follow Elon Musk and I plan to go to IIT Delhi for higher studies.

Otherwise, I will go to Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru for science graduation." "When I tested COVID-19 positive, I focused on healing.

Once fever was down I got back to studies," he added.
