The pain aggravated in September 2012 and he was hospitalized, after that he stopped going to school and the coaching centre.
“My father would hold the books in front of me for 14 to 16 hours a day. I would just lie on the bed. Solving Maths equations, chemical and physics numericals became increasingly difficult as I could not even hold a pencil and rubber,” said Amit.
As the exam dates came nearer, Amit was tense if his health would permit him to sit through the three-hour exam.
He wrote to the authorities and asked for some special arrangement but the request was turned down. “During exams, I was under intense medication to overcome pain so that I could sit on the chair, use my hands to write and operate computer without pain,” Amit said
