Shivaye Jain of Malerkotla will be able to celebrate his birthday with his friends and parents in a great way after a week as he has fulfilled the dream of his parents by securing all India rank (AIR) 678 in the Joint Entrance Exam today.

Shivaye wishes to opt for computer science engineering at the IIT, Delhi, where his maternal uncle, Rahul Goyal, his source of inspiration, is already pursuing the same course.

Elated parents of Shivaye, Subhash Jain and Payal, said the whole family had to make sacrifices as at time they had to miss family and social functions lest he (Shivaye) might not get distracted.

Subhash, a graduate, is a businessman dealing in raw materials for brick kilns while Payal is a housewife.

Shivaye was a regular student of Modern Secular School, Dhuri, and he had joined Edusquare Institute in Ludhiana for extra coaching.
