JEE Success Story: Rohini, an eighteen-year-old girl from a tribal community in Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, has made history by achieving an impressive score in one of India's toughest exams, JEE. According to reports, Rohini secured 73.8 per cent in the exam and has gained admission to the National Institute of Technology, Trichy.

Talking about her achievement, Rohini told news agency ANI, “I am a student from a tribal community who studied in a tribal government school. I appeared in the JEE exam and secured 73.8 percent. I have secured a seat in NIT Trichy, and I opted for Chemical Engineering. The Tamil Nadu state government has come forward to pay all my fees. I thank the CM for helping me. I performed well because of my headmaster and the staff of my school.”
