While
he is delighted over the feat, he also adds that it is very difficult
for him to manage the fees as his father earns merely Rs 500-600 a
day.
"It
is very difficult for my father to pay the fees as they have
increased. Even if I apply for loan, I still have to pay the fees for
the first semester, which I won't be able to manage," he
laments.This comes soon after the government offered help to a Jammu
and Kashmir boy - Zaman Ishtiyaq Bhat- who cracked the IIT entrance
exam but was unable to pay the fees as he had had lost his father in
a terror attack. The HRD Ministry, Home Ministry as all as the Army
had offered financial aid to Bhat after the case came to light.
This
year around 13 lakh students appeared in IIT prelims test out of
which 1.5 lakh qualified for mains.
