Maharashtra Teen Who Wrote Class 12 Exams With Feet, Achieves Distinction

A student from Latur district in Maharashtra, who faces physical challenges, completed their Class 12 exams using their feet. Despite being born without arms, Gaus Shaikh, a Science stream student, scored an impressive 78% on the Higher Secondary Certificate exam conducted in March. Determined to pursue a career as an IAS officer, Shaikh opted not to use an exam scribe and instead wrote using their toes. The exam results were announced earlier this week.
