Mohammad Qhizer brought laurels to Kalaburagi by securing the third rank in the State in the science stream in the II PU examination.

Qhizer, a student of Sri Guru Independent PU college, secured 596 out of 600 marks. He scored centums in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Hindi language, while he got 99 in Biology and 97 in English.

His father Mohammad Ghousuddin works as a cutting master in a private garment company. “I used to wake up at 4 a.m. for studies, and even after college hours, I used to study till late at night. The online classes during the pandemic, the notes, and preparatory examinations conducted in the college helped me perform well,” he said.
