Despite suffering nine broken ribs and severe lung injuries in a road accident days before NEET UG 2026, Shrishti Dubey appeared for the exam after the NTA arranged a special room, medical support and an ambulance.
Clearing the NEET exam is no easy task for most students and involves months of hard work and dedication. But it took on new meaning for 18-year-old Shrishti Dubey, who saw giving the test as a fight against all odds.
Just one week before the NEET UG 2026 examination, Shrishti suffered serious injury when she was hit by a speeding car that broke her nine ribs and damaged her lungs. Yet on June 21, supported by doctors, medical staff and special arrangements made by the National Testing Agency (NTA), she arrived at her examination centre to take the country's biggest medical entrance test.
Her story has emerged as one of the most inspiring moments from this year's NEET examination. Shrishti's ordeal began on June 14 when she was involved in a major road accident.
This led to many bodily damages such as nine damaged ribs and severe damage to her lungs. She had to undergo a massive blood vessel surgery and for a while, she was on a ventilator machine to stabilize her condition.
