NEW DELHI: Living in a dingy one-room flat in Kotla Mubarakpur, 18-year-old Shivangi only dreamt about making ends meet with her mother's meagre income. After her father, who sold vegetables in Kidwai Nagar, passed away last year it became even more challenging for Shivangi to focus on studies. On Wednesday, her life completely changed. Much to the delight of her mother, Shivangi had cracked the IIT JEE under the reserved category.
"I owe everything to my mother and her efforts. She has always supported me and encouraged me to study further," said Shivangi while Sheela Devi planned to cook her daughter's favourite matar-paneer to celebrate her success. After scoring 90% in CBSE class XII exams last year, Shivangi decided to drop a year and prepare for engineering entrance exams. She was then selected by a PSU, Indraprastha Gas Limited, that sponsored her IIT coaching in collaboration with the co-founder of Super-30 Patna, Abhyanand. Shivangi ranked 600 in her category.
