SRINAGAR—A boy from militancy-hit South Kashmir has earned a rare honour by becoming the only Muslim to figure among 10 toppers of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) 2022.

Haziq Pervaiz Lone from Tranz Shopian secured 10th rank in NEET 2022. Haziq got 710 points and is also ranked seventh on the male toppers list. Haziq is also the NEET topper in Jammu and Kashmir.

“I was hopeful to crack the NEET, but getting 10th rank was beyond my expectation. I couldn’t believe that I am among 10 toppers. I am thankful to Almighty Allah for bestowing me with success.  My success wouldn’t have been possible without the support and efforts of parents and teachers of Aakash Institute Srinagar, especially Rohin Jain who taught us physics,” he told a local news agency.

A student of Government Higher Secondary School, Turkwangam, Shopian, he wants to become a neurologist. “My dream was to become a doctor which is now going to come true. I will choose the neurology branch and become a neurologist,” he said.
