“A man is known by the company he keeps”. This age old dictum was proved right recently when the results of 10th and 12th Board Examinations were declared. The story of three friends Purvil Mehta, Shubh Desai and Devarsh Parikh grabbed our attention. The trio has accomplished a unique distinction of coming in the list of top 10 scorers list in both 10th and 12thexaminations while achieving the same score.
They are currently studying in the science stream at Diwan Ballubhai School, Maninagar, Ahmedabad and have been friends right from the third std. Shubh secured 96 percent, Purvil scored 96 percent, and Devarsh scored 95 percent respectively. The three friends are the best example of positive competitiveness and teach the importance of persisting teamwork even during hard times.
