Chettri Bahun Parivarik Sudhar Samiti felicitates Dr Bishal Sharma


NAMCHI, 23 Dec: Dr. Bishal Sharma (Luitel) of Nandugaon, South Sikkim was felicitated today by Chettri Bahun Parivarik Sudhar Samiti, Namchi for cracking the AIIMS post graduate entrance in the 7th position. He was felicitated with a shawl and felicitation certificate in a formal programme organized by the Samiti here at one of the hotels in Namchi.
25-year-old Bishal completed his MBBS from the reputed JIPMER College in Pondicherry in January 2012. He was among the 1.5 lakh or so doctors who took the AIIMS Post Graduate Examination on 18 November 2012 and came seventh in the all-India entrance exam, considered by most to be the toughest entrance in the country. His achievement is definitely a first for Sikkim, and probably a first for the entire region, including the North East.
While addressing the occasion today Dr. Bishal said that, at first when he cracked CET Sikkim as a topper and with 88% in class 12 he thought that he was one of the brilliant students of the country but when he got into India’s number 3 Medical college, he found that most of his mates have come with 100% result.
At first he felt inferior but he converted it into hard work and as a result of the same, he is here today. Here he thanked Dr. Deokota of Namchi District Hospital for his suggestions due to which he decided to sit for AIIMS entrance and cracked it in the 7th position. He advised the upcoming students who are studying outside to take suggestions from their seniors.
He informed that at present he is pursuing his MD in Radio Diagnosis at AIIMS. He thanked the Samiti for the felicitation and urged them to carry on such programmes for other talents which according o him will encourage them to do more in their respective fields.
“Living in a small state, many of us feel inferior especially amongst students from outside the state but the fact is, we have equal IQ and knowledge like others from various parts of the country. The only thing needed is confidence and hard work”, said Bishal.
Earlier, Advocate Kumar Chettri while delivering the introductory speech said that Dr. Bishal has made the entire state proud with his achievement and has proved that at the national level that we are also equally talented and knowledgeable. He informed that Dr. Bishal was always a brilliant student who passed his 10th standard with 92.2% and 12th with 88%, and topped CET Sikkim 2006. And now cracking AIIMS entrance exam for PG in 7th rank, he has set an example for all students studying outside the state, he added.
Ganesh Chettri read out the felicitation letter while the chief advisor of the Samiti, PK Basnet handed over the felicitation letter to Dr. Bishal. President, Chettri Bahun Parivarik Sudhar Samiti, Nar Hari Chettri also addressed the programme.
