Jaipur: Staying two years away from home to prepare for JEE (Main) in Sikar district, Navya Hisaria, the state topper studied for almost 12 hours daily. Hisaria, who scored 287/300, wants to join the Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay and pursue engineering in computer science. Hisaria who hails from Nohar city in Hanumangarh district, studied till Class 10 there and then shifted to Sikar for preparations in August 2020 after the lockdown norms were eased during the first wave of Covid-10. Hisaria studied from the Sikar branch of Kota-based Allen Career Institute.
“I spent most of my day studying, my mother supported me a lot through the whole process. We shifted to Sikar and stayed here during my preparation. My mother also came with me so that I don’t feel lonely. I want to join IIT-Bombay after clearing the JEE(Advanced) and study computer science,” said the state topper.
Poonam Hisaria, his mother said, “Navya enrolled for coaching at the starting of the pandemic and when the lockdown rules were eased, he had to shift to Sikar, so I went with him. We rented a 1BHK for Rs 8,000 per month. However, our monthly expenses would go up to Rs 15,000. It was a little difficult for us to manage the expenses, as last year there was a fire at his father’s factory where we lost everything and had to start from scratch.” Navya secured second position in the General-EWS category.
