Adding to the city’s accolades, Pushti Sharma has achieved outstanding success in the highly competitive National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET UG) 2026, securing an impressive All India Rank (AIR) of 7,521. Following her results, Pushti shared her journey of perseverance. Dissatisfied with her performance in her previous attempt, she decided to re-strategise her preparation. She enrolled in coaching classes and adopted a more disciplined and structured study strategy, which ultimately paved the way for her remarkable comeback this year. Daughter of Dr Arvind Sharma, Superintendent, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College Hospital, and Dr Richa Sharma, President, Indian Medical Association, Jabalpur, said, “My parents have always been my greatest inspiration.

 

Watching them dedicatedly serve their patients inspired me to walk in their footsteps.” Pushti credited her stellar success to the unwavering support of her parents, her elder sister Gauri Sharma, and her teachers who guided her throughout her preparation. Looking ahead, Pushti aims to follow her parents’ path of public service. Her ultimate goal is to become a Government healthcare professional and make meaningful contributions to the nation’s public health services.
