Shakti Dubey at her “lowest place of life”
“I was at school PCB (physics, chemistry, biology), but based on my position I was assigned a place in Dental. I was not interested in this journey, so I decided to chase BSC instead,” Indian Express Dubey quoted. “In my first three attempts, I couldn’t even clean up Prelims. In the fourth attempt, I got into the interview phase, but I lagged. And last year I missed a limitation of only 12 stamps. This was the lowest point in my life-I was thinking about ending,” she added.
“I will sleep peacefully tonight. For years, JO Neend Puri nah Hui, Aaj USKo Pura Karungi (today I will think of years of lost sleep),” Dubey mentioned.
