Picture for representation
Rahul KS suffers from muscular dystrophy, a rare genetic disorder that leads to muscle weakness. The disease did not stop this 16-year-old boy from securing 94 per cent marks in the SSLC examinations.
Rahul scored 116/125 in English, 95/ 100 in Kannada, 92 in Hindi, 93 in maths and 98 in science and social science.
His father, Kanakaraj R, a salesman, is expecting support from good Samaritans. Rahul was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy when he was seven years old. ¡°He would lose balance while walking and fall off. Walking became difficult when Rahul turned 11. He¡¯s been using a wheelchair since then,¡± said Kanakaraj.
Rahul, the eldest of three siblings, aims to become a computer science engineer. He is able to write with his right hand, but finds it difficult to draw diagrams.
What an inspiration!
