The father told news agency ANI that he wants his son to achieve something after his academics come to a close. The man said he was saving money for the exam form from his daily wages. Shobharam plies his trade as a farmer. However, he works as a labourer more often than not.
The exam was held on Tuesday in Dhar, so Aseesh and his father began their journey on Monday afternoon. Father and son stayed at Mandav at night and then they arrived at the examinaton centre just few minutes ahead of the start of the exam.
Since they had no place to stay in Dhar and considering that Aseesh had Social Science examination on Wednesday, they packed food for three days.
Aseesh added that he and his father had to come by cycle because buses were not functioning due to the ongoing coronavirus crisis. Shobharam, the boy’s father wants his son to become big officer in the future. To help his father, he had pedaled bicycle for some distance.
