Curiosity drives Delhi boy Shreyas Mishra to perfect 100 in JEE Main | Delhi News
Meghna.DhuliaNew Delhi: Curiosity defined Shreyas Mishra’s childhood. As a Class V student, the world around him seemed buzzing with questions. Bridges, trains, monuments and machines weren’t just everyday sights; they were puzzles to be understood. Why is a bridge shaped the way it is? Why are trains designed differently? Why hasn’t the Ashokan iron pillar rusted? Today, at a little over 17, Shreyas has turned that curiosity into an extraordinary achievement. He is among 12 candidates nationwide, and the only one from Delhi, to secure a perfect score of 100 in the engineering entrance exam, JEE Main 2026. The feat stands out even more considering the scale of the examination, with more than 13 lakh candidates appearing for its first edition this year.
