Ludhiana. In the results of the medical entrance examination NEET UG 2026, Aryan Gupta, a student from Ludhiana, Punjab, has performed brilliantly and secured the first position in the country. Aryan has secured All India Rank-1 by scoring 715 marks out of 720. Not only his family but the entire Punjab is feeling proud of his achievement. Aryan Gupta comes from a family where people have been associated with the medical field for many generations. He told that since childhood there was an atmosphere in his house to become a doctor. His parents, maternal grandparents, maternal uncles and aunts are all doctors. This was the reason why the desire to become a doctor grew stronger in his mind since childhood. Aryan attributed his success to continuous hard work, guidance from teachers and support from his family. He told that during two years of preparation, he seriously understood the subjects taught in the class and after coming home, he did homework and revision regularly. He says that continuous efforts and patience are most important for success in an examination like NEET.
Aryan told that the change in the examination process and the situation of re-examination was challenging for him too. He said that when the re-examination was announced, he was initially shocked because after two years of hard work, he had closed the books and had to start the entire preparation again. However, he took it as another opportunity and worked harder than before.
He told that in the first examination he had scored 696 marks, whereas in the re-examination he scored 715 marks. According to Aryan, the second exam was more difficult than the first, but he was confident that hard work would definitely yield results. He also attributed God’s grace and luck to his success.
Aryan described the role of his elder brother Aditya Gupta as the most important in his success. He said that his elder brother showed him the right direction during NEET preparation and helped him a lot in understanding the exam strategy. For Aryan, his brother has been an inspiration and role model in the last two years.
Aryan’s mother Renu Gupta expressed happiness over her son’s success and said that her children have been performing well in studies since the beginning. He told that education and hard work have always been given importance in the family. Aryan’s elder brother has also made great achievements at the school level and now the younger son has brought glory to the family by securing first position in the country in NEET.
Renu Gupta said that since her hospital and home were at the same place, it was easy to manage her children’s education and family responsibilities. He said that when the child is ready to work hard on his own, the job of the parents is to provide him the right support and environment. He said that the biggest happiness for him is that his child remains happy and healthy.
Aryan’s father Sachin Gupta said that it is a moment of great pride and joy for him that his son secured first position out of 23 lakh students. He said that no pressure was put on the children, rather they were given the freedom to choose career as per their interest.
Sachin Gupta told that Aryan was also good in mathematics and he had other options too, but he himself decided to become a doctor. The family only gave him direction and support. He said that Aryan lived a normal life along with studies. He met friends, played and sometimes even went out to eat with his family. But when it was time to study, he used to work hard with full concentration.
He said that for the last few years the family had not been able to go on religious trips as the entire focus was on Aryan’s preparations. Now after getting success they want to go to the temple and give blessings and thanks to God.
Gyanendra Garv, a student from Garhwa district of Jharkhand, has also achieved great success in NEET-UG 2026. He has topped Jharkhand by scoring 676 marks. Gyanendra told that the news of cancellation of NEET exam was very disappointing for him. He said that the sudden cancellation of the examination after two years of preparation was a big shock for all the students.
Gyanendra told that at that time he could not concentrate on his studies for about a week, but gradually he controlled himself and started preparing again. He said that preparation for NEET takes two years of hard work and success is not achieved only by studying in the last few months.
