Ranjim, a COVID survivor, tops JEE (Main), says 'I follow Elon Musk'

Despite being infected by COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Ranjim Prabal Das from Assam and a current resident of Delhi was determined to crack the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main 2021.

He is among the six students from across the country to have secured 100 percentile score in the JEE Main February session.

While speaking to ANI in the national capital, Ranjim said, "I follow Elon Musk and I plan to go to IIT Delhi for higher studies.

Otherwise, I will go to Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru for science graduation." "When I tested COVID-19 positive, I focused on healing.

Once fever was down I got back to studies," he added.

Musk & Ramaswamy’s New Job Requirement: Pay to Apply for Their ‘Department of Government Efficiency’

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have officially kicked off the hiring process for their controversial new initiative, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). In a move that’s causing waves across social media, they’ve made it clear that applicants must pay for a premium X subscription to even submit their resumes. But that’s just the beginning. Musk and Ramaswamy have described the roles as part of the "Manhattan Project of our time," aiming to dismantle the bloated $6.5 trillion U.S. federal government. With promises of long hours, high-intensity work, and no financial compensation, this new venture is already shaking up political and business circles. But is this truly the future of government reform, or just a gimmick for Silicon Valley elites? Watch to find out more about this groundbreaking initiative. #ElonMusk #VivekRamaswamy #DOGE #GovernmentEfficiency #PoliticalReform #XPlatform #HiringRevolution #GovernmentDismantling #TechInPolitics #FutureOfGovernment #MuskRamaswamy ~HT.318~PR.274~ED.346~GR.125~
